Sufferer A long rant from a newbie - attempted murder & abused by half-brother

[DharmaGirl]

Nothing you went through was any less worse than what I went through. You went through hell!! It caused your physical brain to change in a way that saved you from losing your mind. I have healed a lot in the last 5 years. I worked hard in therapy, came here often, journaled for hours, came back here, got away from toxic friends, came back here, and now I am more better than worse. You will become that way too, and realize that just because back then people minimized what happened to you, it doesn't mean that you have to minimize what happened to you now.

When you feel like being braver, there's a place on the forum called Trauma Diary where you can start your own diary and rant and rave and write up a storm.

Thank you for the tip, I just might.

I really feel like I've come to the right place.
