    Things only get worse, never better.

    Same here. So many times I've thought to myself "wow, if I'd have been successful in ending it all, I would have missed this. Whatever "this" was at the time. Please keep remembering that the best is yet to come. You just can't see it yet.

    What made you feel better today?

    @Teasel I'm not sure. I was just reading a little about it. Her T has taught her grounding techniques by sensing the sights, smells, etc. She just refuses to use them, preferring to get the rage out her own way. Her job is very stressful and she has way too many other responsibilities. I can...

    What made you feel better today?

    Thanks @Friday That is a great idea. I wish I'd have known about the marble jar with my son who was autistic.

    Sufferer Growing up with trauma and abusive relationships

    My younger brother wanted me to write a book, not to be published, but "for the record". I tried but got to a hard part, (trying to do things chronologically) and a ton of stuff happened where I had to stop. I never got back to it. If you can do it, I'd say go for it!

    I guess I've gotten to that age where I can remember things from 50 yrs ago easier than I can remember last week. Sometimes those older memories jump into my brain uninvited and then I struggle to get back to "now".
