Facial Scar But No Memory Of Getting It

[Anna]

For me, the problem with coping with it by workaholism, eating, exercising, etc..., was that I finally broke down at 52.

Aye, I can totally relate to this. When I stop that is when it comes back. I almost dread vacations or anytime where I am not 100% completly occupied. It seems to come back tenfold then.

Safenow/Maybell:- Thinking about it, I guess my stupid comment above was just denial. Denial can be a super way of protecting yourself, although it is not always the best way to do it.

I have no one I can trust to talk to about this. NO ONE.

Maybell. Do you have a therapist? or are you in treatment? These forums are really great but it is also important to get professional help. I had therapy for a year after my trauma and it really helped me cope.

These forums are great but therapy has been great too, I agree. I don't really have anyone to talk to except here and on the forums because noone wants to hear it.
