Why am I so affected?

...See more Hey guys, first post. really nervous as i never tell anyone anything personal. I was molested by my dad since I was a toddler (i'm 14 now) and a teacher for 2 years. I keep reliving some of the incidents, having nightmares about them and worse, and cannot for the life of me cope with it. I was doing ok until about a month and a half ago when i finally cracked and told my school counselor. Ever since then i've had even more severe anxiety, depression, all the flashbacks etc, and i've been self harming. everything is just getting worse and it all started when i told her about a month and a half ago. i've pretty much always had anxiety and depression, among other stuff, but its escalating at an alarming rate. Now i freak out if i'm in crowds or even just around men. I have panic attacks a lot too. If i keep this up i'm going to seriously hurt myself and also others around me. my grades are slipping and am having a really hard time keeping up (i'm usually an A+ student so it's just adding to all the anxiety and whatnot). I don't know what to do anymore. all of the coping methods and ways to avoid self harm and deal with my panic attacks/anxiety/flashbacks aren't helping. I'm so scared. I don't get why this bothers me so much and so suddenly. i've been for the most part unaffected by it for all these years and now almost instantaneously its ruining my life. Besides, others go through so much worse, i always feel so bad for letting this get to me when this is nothing in comparison.
