Don't know how to help

I have a friend you got raped over the summer. I'm the only person she confided to, but she wrote it in a note...and i lost that note so her parents ended up fidnign out. Now 5 months later she is STILL blaming herself and says it's all her fault and says she's screwed up.....no matter how many times i tell her she's not and it's not her fault. nothing works. I don't know how to help her but i SERIOUSLY need to. Because of this she's dealing w/ depression now. And i'm not sure it's gotten any better. So basically..

WHAT DO I TELL HER? what can i say that will make it a little bit better or anything that will comfort her. HELP HELP HELP

You can't exaactally turn back time.
But you can tell her she shouldn't be so blaming. because all that does is make her situation worse.

so comfort her in any way possible and tell her she's going to be fine. and if her parents know about it they could file a report(in fact theyshould) on her behalf.

well i suggest she talks to a counsllor that specilises in child sexual assult and abuse. they are trained well and no the right things to say. often they can be the only people that get a result. ONLU SUMTIMES THO. i no ppl its working with, just suggest it to her parents. and say u think she needs sumone to help and talk 2 her before she gets worse coz ur relli worried about her

^ Agreed.
She needs to talk to a counselor. And she needs a friend that is always there to listen. More in likely it will take her a long time to get over, being raped, abused, etc thoughts of it take a long time to go away. I was sexually harrased 2 years ago and I still have nightmares. Whatever happens she does need a counselor, even if she thinks she doesn't.
Your a very good friend. :]

uhm..hmm.

thats a hard thing for a girl todeal with. i no a few that have gone through that. i think they honestly just need their friends, and i havent heard from anyone that counseling helps. but there is this one website for girls like her and those who cut and so on. it helped one of my friends. try searching for inspirational websites, orones where you can talk to those who went through the same ordeal.

well i know sum1 it's helped for...me. i was sexually abused/assulted by 3 ppl for 11 years and i have been working with a special counsellor that is qualified in that area of work. i have been seeing her for about a year 1/2 and although it is a long and slow process and i still have alot to deal with but i am seeing an improvment in myself. and i can't guarrantee but i'm sure ur friend would find it useful if she found the RIGHT counsellor aswell.
