    Sexual Assault My Ex Used Past Trauma To Shame And Gaslight Me

    I'm not quite sure what to say. I read your post and feel compelled to reply back. I can relate to your post and my heart goes out to you. Some people can be just so cruel. But you are safe here. So far for myself, everyone has been really kind and non-judgemental. I would like to extend that to...

    Truth Will Set You Free But First It Turns You Inside Out.

    After having an awesome work out last night I am feeling more grounded and would like to continue my experience. From my previous post I'm sure it's evident that things went downhill from there. He tripped me and crushed me with his weight. I just remeber being scared I was going to pass out...

    Truth Will Set You Free But First It Turns You Inside Out.

    Wow thank you @Saetva! That post really does cover everything. It seems to me that this forum is exactly what I've been missing in my recovery so far. The amount of understanding, compassion, advice is substantial in itself. Although for me, what's struck me the most is I've forgotten how to...

    Log Your Daily Exercise

    Completed a 2 hour bootcamp with weighted vest. Including 100 sets of stairs, 100 burpee's, 100 bicycles, 100 jump squats and many more fun things. I love to sweat out everything I got! I'm blessed to be able to do so.

    Truth Will Set You Free But First It Turns You Inside Out.

    I think this is correct, but I have no clue. Attempting to start my dairy. The truth will set you free, but first it turns you inside out. I'm avoiding most of my childhood, so this is most likely backwards from what I should be doing but it's the only place I know where to start from. It's...

    Log Your Daily Exercise

    I completed one hour of spin with a weighted vest. Followed by an hour bootcamp outside with weights and some trail running. Finished off with 30 burpee's and half an hour of obstacle training.... You'd think I'd sleep well enough!

    Death My Friend's Suicide

    Is it coming up on the anniversary? Or maybe this time of the year is usually difficult for you? I know for myself I have started to notice that I become worse off when either the aniversary is around the corner, or sometimes when a special event that included them comes around. Places can...

    How To Escape Your Nightmares

    Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! This forum is really helping me. Although I come here mostly in my worst times and it's usually hard for me to be honest because I'm scared of judgment. I have always received kind contructive advice. My dream was really weird, it's def. not something I...

    When To Go?

    I am 24. We have a 3 year old together and ever since I was pregnant we have had issues. But we went to couples therapy and started to work things out. Than I got sexually assaulted and everything has changed. He spent a while thinking and telling me to fix myself and to snap out of. To be...

    When To Go?

    No I've never been, it just seems so scary. All of the doctors, questions, possible meds. Everything about it scares me. Plus I have to work today, it's Father's Day and no one can take my shift. I'm thinking about going into the hospital after work but I'm supposed to work tomorrow as well. I...

    When To Go?

    I'm in a bad place. My therapist does not work weekends and he is in training this coming week. So I can not call him for support. I am scared. Everything is so overwhelming. I cried myself to sleep last night. After being in a fit most of the night either yelling or dissociating. I've been...

    Assault Feeling Empty

    That does make sense. Thank you. Reading that last comment about this place being safe and the people here being unlike our attackers made me cry. It does feel like the attack left me with peices of him stuck in my mind like a thorn.

    Hello Everyone, This is my second post after introductions, and I hope I'm doing it correctly. I feel very alone and empty. I hate myself. So much so that it is overwhelming. I feel like there is no escape from these feelings or from my life that has resulted from my assault. I wish I...

    Sufferer Hello!

    Good for you! To know where the line is and that you do deserve better. I am a mother as well, and I'm sure that it wasn't an easy leaving the relationship, but I want you to know that I actually find what you did extremely empowering. This is something I have also lived with most of my life...

    Hi, I'm totally new to this forum, and posting. I'm 24 and can totally relate. Abusive relationships and dealing with PTSD. I'm glad you are reaching out. I find it kind of like a double edge sword, finally knowing a name for everything that haunts you but also having to deal with the...
