Why is it sometimes referred to as assault and sometimes called rape. What is the difference?

@Leigh925 wow what great advice/information. Some days I feel like I will just completely lost my own grasp of control and let it all out the wrong w as y at the wrong time. Some days I feel like I have this all in a solid hold. It as just been so heavy on my shoulders lately. You have given...

@Lucycat after the assault I went on to a very abusive relationship that I eventually married into. My spouse knows about that relationship, but not all of the in depth details of it. Just that it was not a good situation and abusive. He knows I go to therapy because of that but doesn't...

@Leigh925 I could be writing your post word for word! I need my space for this and that going to therapy seems to be the only place I have to clear my head without the influence and surrounding of my everyday life. I don't want to answer the questions of who, how, etc. Fact is...I don't even...

@Leigh925 is it something you suggest doing during a therapy session? I've never had him come and the thought of that kinda scares me...almost like it is moving in on my personal space, yet I know having him come would be beneficial also. This is just so hard. :-( It is to the point of...

I'm kind of stuck and not really sure how/when the time is to do this. When do you know the time is right to tell your spouse you were raped? The twisted backward part is we've been married almost 15 years already. :-( It's haunting me in a way so unimaginable. It happened before we were...

There is nothing in her office except the furniture, best, table, and file cabinet. No personal anything. It us located within a hospital. It doesn't bother me though because I'm not there to lose my focus on things around me. I'm there to keep focus on our conversation.

@sun seeker Yeah, I don't really need the technical term. I Guess it is more curiosity of how it all is handled or if it is usually still just kind of blown off as kids being kids. I remember having to go to school with clear marks on my neck in kindergarten. It was so embarrassing. The...

It was a Foster type situation and the other child was from a very broken and abusive home brought into our home at the time.

Is it considered sexual abuse or molestation when it happens to you as a child by another child? It's just a bit confusing to me and I really don't NEED a proper technical classification to remember what happened and know what went on. It's just something small that has been on my mind how it...

I'm very sorry. This is exactly why I have not shared with anybody my diagnosis.

@Namenotdiagnosis thank you. I have tried to be understanding to women in the situation but it is just one I've never been able to overcome. The one and only way.I could ever understand it is if it were an assault situation. Otherwise if she doesn't want to be pregnant.... don't have sex...

@Namenotdiagnosis I get upset when I hear people complain about their kids or when they cry about "accidentally " getting pregnant and calling it an "oops" then crying about it. I want to tell them to shut the hell up!! They should have kept their legs closed then! So many people would do...

write it down and let her read it.

@ptsd I really wish I had that confidence...
