Hi Sarah welcome to AS. I am sorry for what you have been through. I so understand the feelings of shame and disgust, it took me along time to no longer have those feelings. Sometimes it takes time to find the right C, I know it was for me.

What I can tell you, you are not alone here. Their are many who understand how you feel ( which is sad) but are here to support you.

Hi Sarah,

Welcome to AS. I am very sorry for the trauma that you have suffered and the struggles you still have.  What happened to you was not your fault, but unfortunately it is a common misthought many of us have or have had. It was very brave to reach out, and you will find tons of support here. I wish you the best as you continue down your healing path.

Mary

Hi Sarah,

Welcome to AS, I'm sorry you are dealing with CPTSD and have to wait so long for more EMDR. I hope we can be a supportive place for you in the meantime. I am no stranger to feelings of shame and isolation, please know you are not alone with all these feelings.  I hope as you find your way around the boards you will find information and support here. :)

Welcome to AS, Sarah. We are the same age :) I'm sorry for what you've been through, and CPTSD can be so rough. I glad you have had help with the center. Counselling has been very helpful for me, as well, and it's quite normal to go back and forth with feeling okay, not okay, okay again etc. Hope you find what you're looking for here. It's really a great site. :supportu::youcanheal:
