I Realize That I

[Deleted member 12723]

I realized today that I am very blessed with my family who loves me. I am so in awe of this fact.

Sometimes we have our ups and downs but we still all love and appreciate each other.

I realized that I'm not as alone as I thought. ...but I also realize that I still feel alone.

I realize that I made some progress during the last year.

I realize that sleep ain't as scary when someone I trust is next to me and holding me.

I realize that sometimes I don't have words to express what I think.

I realize that sometimes I can only understand.

I wonder if this is weird or not?

I realize that I'm recovered from my therapist leaving and I'm doing better.

 

[Let It Be]

I realize how important it is for me to feel safe and to have consistent behaviors from others which means my self-care is very important to have.

I realize what I just went through with someone was because I was no longer feeling safe by what they said and by their behavior.

 

[Anrish]

I realize that there is a solution to most problems.

I realize that I'm quite capable of doing my work.

I realize that some friends are no friends anymore as soon as you need their support.

I realize that it feels good to read comics again. :bookworm:

I realise that i, (from reading all these posts), finally found a place (here on this forum), that helps me with my struggle!

 

[ms spock]

I realise that food, TV and reading became my parents for quite some time. I need to ramp up my self care and self nurturing to let go of those patterns.

I realise that I stopped reading a trauma diary because the situation I was reading was too similar to something I had experienced. I realise that it was fine to do so, and I should not feel guilty that I never contacted the person to say I had to stop reading it. I think they would understand.

I realise that reading it did push me into anger mode, but that made me more aware of my own stance on a topic.

I realise that I'm eating a lot more than I used to, but that is fine too, and nothing to hate on myself for. I realise I don't deserve to hate myself.

I realise that walking away from a volatile person is sometimes the best course of action, particularly if I have repeatedly asked said person not to continue to discuss my trauma, yet they do not care and proceed to trample all over me.

^ I realise that person is entitled to share, but perhaps it would be better to share with someone else, rather than myself. [I realise it is disrespectful to have continued talking about a subject to a person who has asked several times for the subject to be changed/has stated that they do not wish to talk about it].

I realise maybe this is finding more respect for myself, and what I am willing to take from others in my life. For example, I'm not willing to discuss an issue that makes me stressed out, especially with someone who will not listen to my pleas.

I realise I'm coping better with the difficulties I have with my relationships, but I still struggle with some things, and I'll keep working at it.

I realized that I am finally weary of feeling "less than" because of PTSD: it is time to understand that I handled MORE than my share of crap. I am considering to make myself an T-shirt. Maybe it will say...

"Beware! Do not feed this animal...any more sh*t !" :clown:

 

[rainy_daze]

:giggle: :inlove: I love that idea @Recovery4Me - are you going to use fabric pens, paints or some other kind of fabric art materials?

I realise that I haven't been painting much recently, and I would like to this week.

 

[Recovery4Me]

@rainy_daze lol I will put you in charge of the materials and colors.:hug:

Solid leadership is hard to find.;)

I realize we have a few artist in our midst!
