I know the feeling, as do probably everyone on this site. I'm so glad to hear that you are tired of letting your memories control how you feel. It's not an easy road, but I promise you that it will pay off big time in the end.
Welcome to the site! That just reminded me that it will be my 10th birthday this spring. That's a really good feeling, I hope you feel the same!
This is a great site to talk about your experience and your life now. I know there will be plenty of people that will help and support you on this site.
Welcome to the site!
If you keep piling things up, they will eventually fall.
I'm glad you are seeking help. It's hard, but it's something you must do if you want to live a happy life. It's going to be a tough road, not doubt about it, but it will be worth it entirely in the end. I wish you luck on your journey!
Thank you for that chart. I wondered what I was called. A thriver, I like that. I'm pretty well healed and I want to help others. I can talk about my past without crying or feeling sad for what I have gone through.
I promise that everyone else will get there. It take a lot of work, and a lot of pain, but it's very possible!
