My name is Marie - currently in Baja Mexico, after living in Australia for 16 years originally from California, US. I didn't realize there was such a forum but I feel blessed to have found it. A silent sufferer - though not so silent when rage gets the better of me - reaccuring triggers make me more aware but often living in a hostile environment - not hostile to others but seemingly so to me as triggers surround me in the family arena more so than any other. and so.... the environment we are to believe to be beneficial present itself with its own challenges. I look forward to sharing and gaining a deeper understanding as to those who are more able to control their anger - repressed rage. I cant ignore it any longer - its seeping and permeating my life to the point it must be addressed in a safe and healthy way and I hope this is it. My creative side has also been suppressed with so much activity so as to ignore my mind and what it seems to be forcing forward. PTSD is something I found diffucult to come to terms with but its clear to me acceptance can not be processed with out it being heard. Thus the dilema of a silent sufferer.......
