Its been a year since I was raped and I feel exactly the same exactly! Im not the same person in any way at all. I use to be life of the party friends with everyone now I dont even go out ever and i dont even want to care about other people. I tried counseling and all the lady did was charge me 60 dollars for 15 min and she cut it short because she had a lunch date. My Family will not talk to me about it they dont know what to say to me and get so uncomfortable and if i did bring it up subject gets changed. A year? I should be over this by now right???? I dont know what to do everything backfires this is my last hope i think i need someone or something.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse.

There's no gold standard for being 'over it', and no-one else can tell you how long it should take either - but at least if you can find a proper counsellor (i.e. not the kind you've described above) you've got somewhere safe and non-judgmental to go where you can think and feel whatever you damn well like - and they're not going to get upset or embarrassed about whatever you say.
Hope this is some help.
This site has made me consider about getting professional help which is something I have REFUSED to even think about before.
You've been very brave to have gotten to the point of telling loved ones and seeing help and have encouraged me to do the same.

No dah'lin............ one year is not enough time. And you won't emerge as the "self" you once knew. You will emerge a new person. A person with more strength and courage than the last one.
There is no time limit.......... but you'll know when that lightswitch turns on!!
best of luck to you.
