I am living in constant fear. I could not help the police identify my rapist due to him wearing a mask, the rape kit came back negitive. I have been having horrible nightmares about him comming back. I live with my in laws, "very close to my house where it happened" My husband says chances of him coming back are zero. The police say he won't be stupid enough to try it again. I don't know why but my gut keeps telling me to stay alert, not to put my guard down. He did say it was just the beginning after he raped me. Has anyone been attacked again by the same person? Should I be concerned, and follow my gut?

i think the fear will always stay with you but will ease with time, im 7 years on and still look out for my attacker(who i knew)Build up your defense mechanism, security, friends ,alarms, self defense classes. You feel vulnerable but it doesnt mean he will be back. Take care Fighting, we all have the same fears as you X X X

fear is normal and as long as you dont let it control you its ok. just try to do things that will help you to calm down. you have to reassure yourself that youre safe. ive never heard of anyone being attacked by the same person again...but i wouldnt completely let down your guard. the fear is there to protect you, just dont let it take you over.

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
