    Safety and Recovery - #1 the belief that we are responsible for our trauma - #2 that is was our fault.

    OliveJewel, Thank you so much. I am still at peace inside. Somehow, someway, I found peace in the abyss. What I understand is accurate to me. What you understand is accurate to you. Our communication hinges on our ability to look at what we both understand, openmindedly, as we look to our own...

    Doubting If Trauma “Counts” - Overcoming Self-Doubt in Validating Childhood Sexual Abuse Trauma

    I appreciate your reaching out. You described, almost to a T, what my life was like. Emotions telling me one thing, unable to communicate my experiences to people because no one could understand me, what I was describing.

    Safety and Recovery - #1 the belief that we are responsible for our trauma - #2 that is was our fault.

    Thank you so much for reaching out to me. My poor brain has been processing as fast as it possibly can for 4 months now and although I understand more about where I am, and I understand I am completely safe now, I have a lot to learn about how to facilitate physical, mental and spiritual...

    Safety and Recovery - #1 the belief that we are responsible for our trauma - #2 that is was our fault.

    The core beliefs I would like to discuss are #1 the belief that we are responsible for our trauma, that is was our fault. #2. The fundamental belief that there is something wrong with us. A long time ago, I sought professional help from a trauma treatment facility. They explained that our...

    Sufferer Paralyzed in Shock-Fear for 52 Years, EMDR 5 yrs ago, + 37 of therapy = At Peace! SAFE!

    I completely understand these concepts are very deep, it takes time for me to process as well. I have written, and written, and written. I process by writing, among thinking, feeling, and other things. : ) It helps me understand me. I am open to all suggestions and questions. I want you to...

    Sufferer Paralyzed in Shock-Fear for 52 Years, EMDR 5 yrs ago, + 37 of therapy = At Peace! SAFE!

    Thank you for your inquiry. I am fairly sure you have not seen it because this may not have happened to anyone before.

    Sufferer This is the first support group I’ve tried…

    Welcome. I only found this place very recently and for me, it is not always that I hear what I need to, sometimes just knowing I can say what I feel to someone who cares that is what I find helpful. I am glad you found this place. And I hope you feel at peace soon.
