Wattlebird-
I've been offline for awhile and am just now catching up somewhat. Sending you strength and positive thoughts as you and many others continue enduring such horrendous conditions.

Please Introduce Yourself Here / Re: New to CPTSD

Hello, and welcome! I hope you will stick around and explore the many resources available here. You are in good company, as many of us have never received an official diagnosis and like you, have come to our own conclusions about the affects past trauma has had upon our lives.
I am glad to meet you, Wolfbane.

I'm pulling for you, my teacher friend. Deep breaths, and don't forget some self compassion. This stuff isn't easy.

Feelings always change. Life is about impermanence. This feels like a forever thing when we get stuck, but remember all the other times when you became unstuck. It will happen once more. Faith is hardest to keep when we sit in the dark. But the light is still there, coming toward you. You are never forgotten, never alone.

I am getting ready to dress and get off to work, but just wanted to add my congrats for all your brave work. You are climbing a tall mountain with grace, and sharing the journey here is likely to really help others.
Thanks and sending you

I'm so sorry for your deep sadness. I wish we could have coffee IRL. Not that I could take away the sadness, but I would listen and you could maybe feel that nice feeling of being listened to.
I am thinking of you, and sending healing energy!

I think that deep down, you know that stopping the healing is not a good option. I'm sorry you are hurting so much. I have felt pretty defeated myself over the past two months, and it's not an easy spot.
