Hi. Iv been searching for a place to chat and vent and get some support. At a place in my journey where 20 years of suppressed anger, fear and grief is coming out and I really don't know what to do with it. 

I SH and self medicate and sleep my pain away but I also have counselling and acupuncture which are excellent.

Hope to meet some peeps my age too since I have no friends.

Hi Boop,

Welcome to AS. I am very sorry about the trauma that you have suffered, but you have found a very supportive site. I am sorry you are struggling right now, but you will find understanding and kind members here. I personally understand of suppressing and denying for decades (30+ years for me), and how when it starts to all come out it can be so overwhelming. Reaching out here has been a big step, one of what will be many for you, I'm sure. I wish you well as you journey your path of healing.

Hi boop,

I just wanted to let you know you are not alone. And I'm sorry that you are hurting. I too am having a delayed (18 yrs ago), journey in facing my trauma, and understand dealing with many years of suppressing anger, fear and hurt. I am proud of you for being here. I think after so much time, we are sometimes convinced of the lies we have told ourselves. It takes time to change the monologues in our heads. I am glad you are seeking support. And have found a safe place to grieve.
