What should I do if I've been raped?
-
Find a safe environment — anywhere away from the attacker. Ask a trusted friend to stay with you for moral support.
-
Preserve evidence of the attack - don't bathe, shower, brush your teeth or change your clothes.
-
Go to the hospital emergency room – you can call the police from there.
-
Ask the hospital to conduct a rape kit exam to preserve forensic evidence.
-
If you suspect you were drugged, ask that a urine sample be collected. The sample will need to be analyzed later on by a forensic lab.
-
Write down all the details you can recall about the attack & the attacker.
-
Know that what happened was not your fault and that now you should do what is best for you.
-
If you know that you will never report, still consider:
-
Get medical attention. Even with no physical injuries, it is important to determine the risks of STDs and pregnancy.
-
Call the National Sexual Assault Hotline for free, confidential counseling, 24 hours a day: 1.800.656.HOPE.
-
Recognize that healing from rape takes time. Give yourself the time you need.
-
Know that it's never too late to call. Even if the attack happened years ago, the National Sexual Assault Hotline or the
National Sexual Assault Online Hotline can still help. Many victims do not realize they need help until months or years later.
