Sufferer Long Time Suffered

[RobH]

I'm 44 and have been dealing with abuse trauma that happened when I was 2-3. I remember triggers at the age of 12 on up. I'm currently in therapy and meds and on the long road to recovery. All I can say is that you can do it too. There is no stopping you. I know if I can do it so can you. My life was haunted with trauma and all the complications associated with it for at least 30 years but through constantly praying and having close family that love me and kept me alive I was able to reach the point that I'm at. I still have bad days. Sometimes they last longer than the good ones and it is still a struggle but there seems to be a light at the end of the tunnel. I just hope it's not a freight train, lol. Humor, even dark humor has kept me going through the years.

Peace be with you all and may you all find it some way some day.

Thanks everyone and "The body keeps the score" is in my library and I'm on the 2nd chapter. It is very insightful. I recommend it.

It is heartbreaking to know some of you have suffered a long time with this but it is also comforting to know that I'm not the only one. It is encouraging and every little bit of encouragement is needed and I try to pass it on. Key word is try. Thanks

Music is therapeutic to me. Any kind from Radiohead to Lynard Skynard and everything in between. God Bless you all and too all a good night. I just hope you don't have the nightmares I use to have. I started taking a prescription pill for them and for the most part they are almost gone and now I actually have a sleeping pattern but I know all too well what it's like to not have one. So, I hope and pray we all sleep well tonight and every night after. God bless.
