Just got back from my appointment with PTSD councilor.

Main theme of the session? Take back the power.

Comments

Bravo

Mostly, others only have the power we give them.

In my case

it is mostly about reminding myself when the memories try and overwhelm me that they are just memories. The abuse is in the past, not in the present.

Not that it's easy, by any means.

Some abuse is in the past.

I don't think this advice considers those of us who are spoonies or are in abusive situations. P.S. Rather than further hijack this blog, I've added an explanation to my bio.

congrats hon, you have taken the first step in healing.

That is the hardest part, it only gets easier as you continue. ( Not that is is easy, but it gets easier. )


Stupidity is a capital offense. A summary not indictable.
