New Here

I'm new to this board. Came across it last night and I'm hoping it will be helpful.

I'm a survivor of abuse - all kinds - and have gotten myself into bad situations more than once as a teen and adult. Started therapy when I was in my early 20s and having a hard time raising my daughter - i didnt trust her with anyone but me and had no idea why. I blanked out most of my childhood. Things started flashing and still I wonder to this day if some of it just isnt real. Who knows.

Long story short, I went through some very hard times and I have enjoyed many years of absolute joy. I stopped therapy probably too soon - but at the time it seemed right to me. Not to my T, but lol, why would I listen to them.

Now things are going downhill again. Feel like all that work I did to bring everything together and make myself whole has completely come undone. Not remembering things. High Anxiety all of the time and flashes/dreams.

So... I see the writing on the wall. I need to fix this. My kids deserve a happy mom. And my wonderful, loving husband of not even 2 months deserves a happy wife.

So... that's all for now. I hate sharing, talking about stuff, etc but know I need to or i'll drown in myself.
