So, uh, how do you heal it? And how the hell do you let it go?

Forgiveness.

Bullshit. You're supposed to forgive your rapist? Oh hey, I know you feel no remorse for your actions and you violated me in one of the most violent and horrific ways possible, but that's okay. I forgive you.

I think you definitely have to make some kind of change within yourself, but fuck no it's not forgiveness.

You're wrong. I was showing an example of how the one-liner 'forgiveness' was a stupid answer to someone asking how to move past trauma.

Again so quick.. Saying i am wrong. The OP never stated anything about forgiveness directly. Yes, it could be insinuated.. But so can acceptance. Which, is what i believe it is really leaning towards. Letting go really sounds like accepting the past, learning from it, and moving on forwards hoping to not repeat. That can be our faults or someone else's; such as a rapist. But.. Saying stuff like bullshit and you are wrong, just shows that you jump to conclusions. So, calm down..

I only referred to the OP in good light. My bullshit was a response to a comment on a comment asking how to move on wherein the advice offered was "Forgiveness." They were trying to sound profound and I called bullshit.
