I Told My Support Group, About My Past

Try some positive affirmations.. That"s how I get rid of the cr$p. Try to repeat to yourself every nice, kind, positive thing anyone has ever said to you or about you. Try to feel and remember how good it felt hearing those words.

The good stuff people have said are the truths you can believe....
 
Thank you, everyone, for your supportive comments and suggestions. It has taken me, three days, to ground myself, again, both emotionally and physically, after Friday night. I never thought, I would react, so emotionally, when I shared this part of my past, with the support group, which I have been attended on/off, for the past 7 years, when my mom rejected me, after finding out, I'm a transsexual.

Not sure, if my actions are, those, of a brave soul, or someone seeking release from the toxic memories, which I carry within, me. Either way, I need to find a safe way, to share these experiences. I hadn't planned to say anything, about my past, it just happened, and I couldn't stopped, until everything was said. I know, there was many details that I didn't share, but they got the outline of the abuse, which I grew up, in, both at home and on the schoolyard.

Realize, now, several days later, the very act of posting, here, has helped me, in my recovery, from last Friday. In letting some of my emotions bleed off, safely. Thank you, for letting me, vent, and letting my anger go.

Just check my Gmail account, and one of the women, from my support group, offered to talk to her therapist, about taking me, on, as one of her clients. This really makes my day. If she was beside me, I would hug her, until she told me, to stop or my back pain got to be, too much!!!!
 
Excellent post therisa, I'm happy that you can be so honest with yourself.
