    Childhood me and current me fighting - How did you get the two ages to meld and stop fighting each other?

    Thank you, I appreciate the response and it something I’m starting to work on. Just feels weird knowing things from my child perspective but also feeling it as an adult. It can make me quite mad at myself but I know kid me didn’t know and yeah it’s just a battle. But feels better knowing I’m not...

    Childhood me and current me fighting - How did you get the two ages to meld and stop fighting each other?

    Thank you all for the responses. It makes me feel a lot better actually hearing from others suffering or who have suffered with this problem. I am gonna talk to my T and see if we could begin work on this. I feel like I have kinda hit a wall in therapy because of this internal battle but maybe...

    Childhood me and current me fighting - How did you get the two ages to meld and stop fighting each other?

    So recently I have been talking with survivors of SA at my university but it’s just not the same. I was sexually abused for eight years from 4-12. While everyone I have talked to has had their experience as an adult. Which I’m not saying isnt bad. But I have been struggling a lot recently with...

    Feeling Alone

    Hey sorry I got off track for a little while and stopped checking here. I am doing okay. Still battling with some of these questions but I know it takes time and that really these are just wounds that need to heal. I’ve done some more opening up to my girlfriend which has helped a lot. Even...

    Feeling Alone

    I guess I want to start at the begging so you know my situation a bit. I am a college junior and over a year ago I took a child abuse class as a part of my major. I thought nothing of it tbh it’s stuff I read about and study all the time in the criminology field. But we did a case study and...

    Not Ready? Need to begin talking about what happened to me, but cancel appointments or talk about pointless things in therapy.

    I feel as if I am hitting a wall in T. I have canceled numerous appointments in the past couple of months as well as just not wanting to go. I'm pretty sure because I know what I need to do next and I just do not want to. I need to begin actually talking about the things that happened to me as a...

    Finished sophomore year of college

    Last week I finished my finals for my second year of college. I think I did pretty good. I’m expecting all A’s and one B in my honors class. Being a student in a pandemic has not been easy. Also a student in the middle of recovering traumatic memories and starting new medication and therapy. I...

    Why do we keep going?

    I often feel this way. It feels like your constantly losing an uphill battle. But with help that feeling comes around less and less often. I was sexually assaulted by an older relative for at least six years. It has taken me almost one year now of intense T to start to feel better. I’ll be...

    3 Months of Weekly Therapy has dragged me out of the pit

    Thank you I have recently been starting trauma counseling over the last couple months for sexual assault from the age of 6-12 and T has been really discouraging. It seems that I keep uncovering more trauma with no end in sight. But this was a nice positive note by you to keep going.
