Hi there
Nice to meet you.

PS Turtles/tortoise are magical animals in Chinese mythology: stability, longevity, and protection; they are an ancient energy associated with the wisdom of the earth

Welcome to OOTS sligeanach    I think the turtle/tortoise is such a great visual image of what it's like to have CPTSD, we have a hard protective shell we can retreat into when we need/want to

Hello and welcome! I have always loved turtles, they're my spirit animal.

Welcome.  Thank you for introducing yourself. I think using pictures was creative. I like turtles too.
