[quote=Anonymous]I was a poster in the Brock Allen Turner thread who shared my story.

I was between age 25-30 and it happened at work.  I can't give specific details because that would lead to possibly finding the news articles on it.

My co-workers and fiance knew right after it happened.  I told my sister a few weeks later when she was visiting from out of state.  I didn't tell my mother until a few years later because she's always been one of those "well, it was her fault for running at night alone" type people and I just couldn't deal with any comments she might have made.  I didn't tell my dad; I just couldn't do it, so my mom did it for me and my sister was present to make sure she didn't "embellish" or put her own spin on how it happened.

Now, after years of therapy, if the subject comes up, I'll talk about it.  Right after it happened, I told a few people as possible because I already didn't have the initial 'luxury' of keeping it to myself as my story to share since it happened at my workplace.  Knowing that everyone knew was so overwhelming because I'd always been a very private person.
