Sufferer Another Way Of Life?......

[billie]

It has taking me all my courage to post this on here. I am not ready to expose my story, however I am willing to try anything to not live in fear and finally be able to call myself human. I dont recall a time where I could ever regard myself as human. I have a great psychologist and an okay psychiatrist. I have recognized I have an amygdala that has been programed by environmental factors, in which I want to break the cycle. I dont know a life away from trauma; in fact anything else would be something I can only imagine. I have been on this journey to recovery for a while, I am hopeful sometimes that there is something else for me. I hope my words can reach others in a positive manner, and I wish you well.

Hi Billie. Nice to meet you. The shortening days and family memories and general feeling that others are more able to be in the season's joy without suffering always make this an extra hard time of year, for me at least. And I find I've been posting here much much more frequently and that helps. Hope there is something here that cushions your blows. LP

I very much hope you take a lot of your free time this evening/morning to re-read what you just said. Yes, it does!! I for one am proud of you you've come this far! You are absolutely among friends here.

I am in no position to give advice, but just you posting helps me find the courage to continue. So thank you, and whether or not you realize it, you've just helped someone. /heart :)

Hi Billie. I don't often have to look up English words any more, but I had to look up "amygdala." I am still not sure what it means, but I think I'll just let the mystery be. Neurology is one massive science.

Unfortunately, I don't get to wake up with a different herstory, but I solidly believe change is possible. Sounds to me like you are on a solid track to accomplishing that change.

Thank you for your courage in posting. Welcome to the forum. I look forward to seeing you around.
