Real event OCD tied in with trauma

Does anyone else have intense, complex trauma that doesn’t fit the narrative of “perfect victim”? I’ve experienced a form of SA/rape that hasn’t been widely discussed and I’m sure would be shunned mindlessly. It’s a major theme of my OCD and has haunted me for a long time. I can never be fully open about my trauma and I cannot be open about things I didn’t know were wrong at the time after my trauma. It’s lonely. OCD torments me for it everyday. I still struggle with it till this day. I relapsed after 2 years of being cleaned from an OCD compulsion. It’s been hard. I would love to know if anyone else related.

You shouldn’t feel shamed for being a victim of anything. There are many support groups of people that experience SA. Maybe look into the me too movement where people shared their stories, as long as your ready as it can be traumatizing for some, but your never alone there over a a billion people on earth, so there is someone out there that has gone through the same thing
