Not necessarily. Rape survivors (I will NOT call them "victims") often share their stories with others who have gone through the same thing. I shared my story on here and it has helped alot of other survivors.
My ordeals have only made me stronger, and more able to relate to another who has just gone through it and is shell shocked. No offense, Silver, but you don't give the survivors of rape much credit at all. I've been raped, had cancer, tried suicide, been incapacitated in bed in absolute agony for over a year, and have lifelong depression. If you read ANYONE'S testimony on here, you will see how they overcame their circumstances in the face of death and adversity. I admire each person who is strong enough to tell their success story on here.
Read anybody's testimony and you will see that they know there IS a reason for each trial that has come their way...
