I enjoy writing and am seeking to clarify my thoughts, feelings and internal process.

Family, trauma and healing
Thanks for this ^. Your experience is very resonant for me, everything you write!
It's helpful to be reminded of the need for discipline and optimism. Some days, I can't summon faith, but I know I've 'already come a long way'. By virtue of stepping out of the patterns of dysfunction, facing the pain and opening to the healing.Posted 23rd April 2014 at 07:12 by Star Rainbow -
Family, trauma and healing
I've had a similarly traumatic childhood. I started my healing work two years ago. I've essentially been self medicating to deal with the unprocessed traumas and emotional pain built up from the past. I was out of touch with reality for a long, long time - in denial.
Therapy has helped to some extent and I've done a lot of personal work which has had a life changing impact but still some problems persist. I think with some discipline one can create the necessary changes in the mind to adequately manage the symptoms of trauma related conditions. So be optimistic, have faith that you can heal completely. Also as hard as it may be, try to shift attention away from the past and onto positive thoughts or actions.Posted 22nd April 2014 at 19:51 by zpargo872 -
Walking alone
Yes, I know what you mean. I would like to share these experiences, the magic of it - some of the timePosted 21st April 2014 at 07:37 by Star Rainbow -
Walking alone
Interesting read. I almost always walk alone as well. Most of the time I prefer it but sometimes I think it would be nice to go for a drink afterwards with others or talk about things.Posted 20th April 2014 at 19:44 by indigo777
