I survived a rape that occurred as an adult that has particularly haunted me.
Other traumas seemed like they happened slowly - almost in slow motion. The perps didn’t actually go slow, my sense of time slowed down.
Or the trauma went on and on and on. It didn’t start and end in a few minutes.
This rape? It felt like it happened quickly. It probably took a few minutes but it seemed like seconds. Like all of a sudden it was just happening and I was saying no and trying to get free. I didn’t get away, and it all happened so quickly. I was left tied up afterwards for some time. That lasted for what felt like forever. But the rape itself was fast. I was safe and then very not safe very fast.
Anyone else feel like it happened super quickly?
Maybe this is a super strange question to ask. Not sure why it’s on my brain.
