Possible trigger:
So I'm not sure why I'm posting this or what I expect to come from it.. I guess I just needed to say it out loud or to see it in writing... maybe try to make it more real so I quit hiding from it. Or maybe I just need to be told that it's not my fault.. or maybe that I'm not a victim at all Last edited by bluekoi; Jun 12, 2020 at 11:25 AM.. Reason: Add trigger icon. Apply trigger code. |

Dear paris7149,
I am so very sorry for the terrible ordeals you have suffered in your life. What you have been through is just heartbreaking. To me you are a very heroic person. I wish I knew what to say to ease your pain but sadly I lack the experience, insight and wisdom. I do hope these Forums will prove helpful to you in your struggles. I think your post will inspire many people who are struggling. And I wish you only the very best. Sincerely yours, Yao Wen |

While I can't relate in your story, I empathize with being unable to remember a traumatic life event. When I was 15 I was sexually assaulted by an ex-boyfriend. We ended up getting back together. I don't remember what went down really, only that I tried to end it many times but would always be convinced to stay. But, who knows if I even remember that right? I repressed it for fear of being kicked out or rejected by my family, especially my mother, who is a leader in her church. It still affected me, I'm pretty sure i have an eating disorder because of it. But when I got to college, everything resurfaced, and I was faced with the real emotional consequences of it all. So I truly empathize. If there's one thing I know though, with my limited therapeutic knowledge, is that it most certainty IS NOT YOUR FAULT. It's something I still have to come to accept, but I get there bit by bit.
