I just want to say what a comfort it is to have people I can listen and talk to who are like me, who were traumatized a children. Until now I'd only met people who developed PTSD as adults or people who were in denial about the damage caused by the abuse they suffered as children.

So thank you all so much. In a perfect world, no child would ever suffer. But since it isn't a perfect world, your companionship is the next best thing.

Hi Maria

I'm glad you're here! This community has helped me so much I can't even express it in words. Finally a place where I am accepted, understood and not judged.

Hope to see more of you

Hi Maria, I am just starting the process of seeing what in the heck has happened to me. I've been so perplexed because
I was Traumatized as a child and worked through much of that over 25 years ago. So how could I get so re-Traumatized
as an adult and react with the same dissociation that I developed as a child. I can't say how yet, but I am seeing the connections.

Hi Maria,

I hope it's ok to leave a post because I was not traumtized as a child and that's your original point. I wished to say, though, that you took the time to leave a good, no-nonsense and kind reminder for me. Support is support and you seemed to have joined and immediately took the time to wish someone else some peace.

I hope you find answers, healing and some peace here.

Take care,

Anni

I hope it works out for you. If you feel up to it, you might post about what you're going through. Someone here might have some insight.

I feel like I'm just popping into reality again and with a whole new set of physical limitations that affect my cognition. I don't feel safe here or anywhere posting what I feel I must still hide. It's hard for me to see and read and put words together. I'm glad I found this forum too.
