I think I can be proud of that :)

That I can write it means I've healed just enough to handle it. And that I can do more for my own recovery -- mental and physical

It also makes you accountable to yourself next time you find yourself struggling to confront an issue (which happens, over and over!).

“Remember that issue that I sat on for 7 whole years before I got the courage to ddal with it? Nothing can be that hard!” (No pun intended!!).

You’re stronger than you know. You’ll probably forget that periodically. Check in here whenever you need reminding;)

Yes, it's a huge step to be able to talk about something, especially something so difficult like that. There is so much I feel like I'm never going to talk about - even some stuff that's a -huge- deal for me - but it feels so good when I finally am able to bring myself to start discussing it.

I think it's totally natural you waited so long to talk about it. If not for you bringing it up, who knows if I ever would have gotten up the courage to talk about that stuff to anyone. You were able to do that though, which is very impressive. You should feel like it was an accomplishment - it totally was!
