I've read most of Running on Empty and I've done a lot of therapy, but I have literally no one to talk to about these things. I've never had any friends or family I felt safe with talking about my feelings, pains, or needs. I don't even know what my needs are!
I am objectively smart and hardworking, and I always want to work on being a better person, but lately I live in a roomful of mirrors. I just want to be able to share and talk about things with another civilian going through their own challenges, not a professional therapist. I can't find and local support groups or Chatrooms for discussing childhood emotional neglect, but there's always, here, email, messenger, Skype, and more I'm not recalling.
Anyway, here I am. :wave:
