Re: not coping

I understand being in the firing line @outlander It's not a nice place to be.

Its like they save up all the things they want to say and then blurt it all out. All their pent up anger. Might not even involve you, but somehow it is still your fault.

It's hard with multiple traumas. Where to begin.

I worry with mine that someone else could come forward.

Re: not coping

he writes very nasty letters @Snowie thats how he expresses himself

trauma is such a hard thing. i will have to talk to her i guess and maybe start with one im not worried about getting reported for.

Re: not coping

Those letters must be hard @outlander

I hope you don't take it personally.

When I first started doing EMDR I started with a trauma that didn't pack a punch. One that was easier to talk about.

Doing work on those big trauma's would certainly be hard.

Re: not coping

yeah i think ill have to start with one that a little easier @Snowie
i do walk and talk therapy, i had tried emdr but my brain was so resistent to it that it was deemed unsuitable at the moment until my brain would actually allow the openness abit more.

Re: not coping

I'm struggling with EMDR @outlander Psych and I are having a break from it.

Walk and talk therapy sounds ok.

Will say goodnight hon. Getting harder to keep my eyes from closing!

I hope you get a good nights sleep hon. Will talk again tomorrow 💕💕

@outlander

You are a strong person dealing with many challenges with courage. I am glad you have some “therapy “ but yes choosing wisely how to proceed does matter.

Pop is on his journey and it would be difficult to see and experience. Find ways to shelter yourself.

I am tired but had a reasonable day. Son made a great dinner and is beginning to like herbal teas. Our cats had their first explore of the front garden. It was cute.

hey hey
