Working Through A Panic Attack

[Bookoffee]

I felt alone all my life. Everyone always telling me what to think, what the truth is and what a lie was. To actually read that I am ok and there is more then me out here in this world is really overwhelming.

I am so thankful for each of you today. I am ok...

You are not alone even though you feel like you are. Lots of us lived with that kind of invalidation/mind control and a big part of the healing journey is learning about and embracing your own truth. Glad you're on the forum.

I feel the same way, I still don't know for sure what's all happened and who was lying and who was telling the truth, but I'm glad at least that I'm not the only one, though it's painful for me to imagine other people living through similar experiences. When I was little I thought everyone went through the things I did and it was normal, but when I realized that wasn't how it was for everyone I started to feel like nobody could understand.

I'm glad to know there's more out there too, it helps me have a better perspective on life and to be grateful for what I do have and what things were good. That it's ok now. That's what keeps me going, remembering that.
