Not sure how to feel

Hello, I am new to blogs and support groups and all of this so I have no idea what I am doing. All I know is that my mom told me finding others who have been through similar troubles and are experiencing the same emotions now would help, sooo here I go. Nobody in my family knows that I am finally reaching out. I don't really know how to do this or what to say or whats appropriate or not all I know is that I am so tired of not having anyone to talk to about my past. I thought that if I pushed my past away hard enough that I could pretend that it never happened and for a while I believed it to be true. You see I never started to have triggers or hard moments. When people would discuss what happened to me it never bothered me. That is until recently. I am going on a little over a year of being pulled from my situation... and now I am starting to really struggle with it... because I am no longer able to pretend like it never happened and I am starting to realize that what happened to me really was awful and all of these feeling and emotions are so hard. Because my whole life my one defense was to be able to block out feeling and emotions I mean I seriously blocked out some memories but now its like I can't anymore. I can't just not feel and so I am getting slammed with all of these new emotions that I don't know how to respond too..

Again I am not sure what I am allowed to share on here or not which is why I am being so incredibly vague and not bringing up what happened to me. So until I find out a little more about how this works I guess this is just how it will go. For now... I am just looking for someone to talk who can relate to me so I don't feel like I am crazy for feeling like this..

I can relate to a lot of this and I can say I find this site so helpful. 

Main thing is :notalone: !!!  You can share as much or as little as you'd like and people here are very understanding.

I feel like you, and I'm also new at this and don't know how it works. but if you want to talk to somebody who's also going through the same thing, we can talk... I don't know how to do that on here but, I'm down to give it a try...
