Hey all..
I have been rolling with flashbacks for..IDK..2 weeks now?
My EMDR therapy has been halted until I am in a better state of mind to handle it. Revelation after revelation have been battering away at me terribly.
I even ran into a friend that I've known since about fifth grade. I allowed myself to get a bit deep with her and admitted to the abusive relationship between my mother and myself. She looked at me and said the damned thing.
"Tuff..You have to remember that I was there and saw years of it. Why do you think I always dragged you to my house to spend the night? No matter how many times you said things were ok I was so scared for you."
Apparently I'm not as good at covering things up as I thought I was.
I'm doing much better at my new house. I have put enough distance between myself and my mother that she couldn't visit even if she had the address.
I hope everyone is doing..well..better than yesterday if yesterday sucked for you..and I wish everyone a good tomorrow.
Take care all..And remember..the worst part of this is the work it takes to get beyond it. There's always a reward for ones work. In our case the reward is peace. You are all in my prayers and thoughts.
