Therapy and The Candle Self of Navigation

[Felicitas]

recognise help was not there

But hell its not easy ...I've learned in therapy its not about absolute solutions and the end of pain - its about being able to tolerate one-self and put a hand into the hand of part of oneself that also recognises that long ago and hand of help was never there ...

This meets me where I am at. Recognising that help was not there is a very tough part of my trauma. I have not come to peace there. I trusted people who I thought were trustworthy but turned out to be very naiv, selfabsorbed and not knowledgable.
Sorry I am writing all about myself and not really about you. i have given so much in the past, that I just want to be with myself.
By the way Art is what fills my heart and makes me enjoy life.
Oh a question comes to my mind there.
i lived in this brown/grey third world city for over two years, I painted the wall behind my sofa bright orange. That was the only friendly warm colour in the whole city for me to see. I suffered so much from not having colour and beauty around me, while help was never there.

Insensitive Practice On A Mental Health Board

Dear Anthony SEO (17/12/2007)
The lack of constant edit facility here which disappears for posters and the way you capture people's material so they cannot alter it, without making that absolutely clear and inside the a vulnerable area of mental health matters is wrong. The image I originally put here is in no sense copyrighted to you or those on this board . In fact you or someone managing this facility took it and altered the digital code on it so it was permanently captured because it was only hyperlinked originally and I rook that link away from the original source. That action means I did not consent to your use of it...You would get a lot more co-operation if you were more considerate . Unsubscribe me Anthony . Be decent about it ...

If you had read the new members begin here forum, you would have read these two important pieces of information.

Is there a drug I'm missing out on?

 

[just tina]

That's probably a very common question, with PTSD, Awakening ;)

I ask myself that all the time.
