Klanala's Trauma Diary

[Klanala]

What's your alternative reasons to live? ;)

And I don't mean just the big, looks good on promo posters, shit.
I mean the little stuff too.
And not so little, hard to name ones.

& So you remember the feeling of safe... that's actually a good thing. It means what hospital stays offer can be recreated elsewhere, piece by piece. 'Only' needs those pieces fetched & collated together right.

Without someone's nonsense taking a hammer to that castle of glass with how vulnerable shelter it's gonna be, the first few years.

Hello ronin. I thought I would give you an update. I am moved in. Have a new love seat ordered. Only 1 relationship. Firm boundaries set. I have no time money energy to give to people not moving forward blaming others not being accountable etc. Never attending a church again. So many people violated my boundaries doing my move I said enough. Trauma survivors aka codependent are targeted. I no longer care if they think they are well meaning. No is powerful.

Hi @Klanala - I've started this diary thread for you, by moving your post to @Ronin from @Sideways diary.

I see you use your profile page for updates, and that's fine. Members here tend to follow threads more than the profile pages, so this diary can also be a good place for you to practice posting on the forums.

I'm glad you feel more empowered and in control of your life @Klanala.

Though I would maybe rethink the black & white thinking, always / nevers, and strict categories of people with time.

They aren't very practical for socializing comfortably as time goes on.

Thank you for your amazing work not just in this move, @joeylittle :tup:

Yes you are right. I do venture into black and white thinking. But with churches I am perhaps there after 59 years. Thank you.
