Re: rough time

Hi @outlander. Okay, found your main thread and read a few recent posts. I dont have any advice for now, though I will ponder upon it and get back to you if I come up with anything useful.

All I will say for now is that its damned hard learning to cope after disclosure of past traumas. Once you open up that pandora's box, it cannot be just shoved back in. It has to all come out and all be properly analysed and dealt with. Only then can it be repacked in a different more gentle way. Exposure therapy and EMDR both aim to do this.

Talk more when I feel I might be making some sense. I have subscibed to this thread now, so will keep an eye out for you. And hopefully contribute when able.

Hi also to @MDT@Sans911@CheerBear@Shaz51

thanks @Former-Member it is hard once that box has been opened that is for sure. it would be easier if things could jsut be shoved back in there and tape the lid shut though wouldnt it!

Re: rough time

It may seem that way @outlander 😀

But I also know life wasnt too good while keeping that lid on and firmly bolted down. So I believe its best out in the open where we can learn how best to deal with it.

Re: rough time

yes that is true. as hard as it is i dont think we can 'run' or keep things boxed forever hey @Former-Member the box is open now so will have to keep taking those steps forward to heal and as you say neatly pack it all away
