I think that you were very brave. Instead of sitting and wondering and letting it eat at you, you took action. OK, maybe it turned out bad and you sort of knew it would, but perhaps you had to do this in order to move on. The shame isn't yours, it belongs to the person who couldn't see your hurt and help you. It really belongs to the person who hurt you in the first place.
I'm so sorry it hurt so much. But I refuse to believe that you are so damaged that you will never heal. This wasn't a failure, it was a misstep, a bad call, an act of desperation because you feel SO BAD. What would you say to me if I said I was a freak because of what happened to me? Please be kind to yourself.
I wish I could help more. I'm holding you in my thoughts tonight.
