[quote=Kyuki]Yeah my mom stopped me but made sure she talked about the family image not two minutes after. And she hasn't spoken to me without an incredible amount of annoyance since. As for anyone else in my life. I almost literally have no one else to talk to my one friend out of the two I have...yelled at me for being stupid enough to try and continue on with school in the first place. Telling me I brought it onto myself.[/quote]

Sometimes people don't know how to react and say really stupid and hurtful things. I'm going to assume this is the case. You had no control over their behavior, the fault lies with the perpertators. Any guilt or 'what ifs' you have, and you will have them, does not mean it is your fault. You're the one who was wronged and you deserve to feel safe and you deserve justice. You are worth the time and effort to see that these people are punished and to see that they don't repeat their behavior towards you or anyone else.
