Sufferer Making Big Efforts With Recovery

[maryiscontrary]

First, I want to thank you guys for all of the great insights.

I have a lot of disorganized aspects that I am trying to fix with single minded focus. I live in a very inexpensive used RV home that I have made beautiful, structurally sound, and safe. I surround myself with my art and beautiful surroundings, like afternoon drives to the canyons, and sunsets. As well as lovely climate. All inexpensively.

I have days I dissociate a lot, as well as flashbacks. But I have practiced mindfulness meditation for 14 years, and though I am not as skilled as I want to be, I am better than I was.

I work from home in a business I created from nothing, where I get to practice being a decent person to my suppliers and clients. I will say it is crafted and beautiful, just like my RV home I live in.

I have to say I let a lot of people go, lots of them, as they were so toxic to me. Nice little codependent habits I am breaking.

Welcome. That's so cool you can create beautiful things. I bet that puts you in a nice creative trance sometimes.

Thank you guys for the warm welcome. I am really trying, and it's nice to be around others that are trying, too.
