I dont know what it is but since I told my story on here and since I told my pastors, although I'm not 100% better I feel a whole lot better. I feel like a weight lifted off of my sholders. Im still struggling but I go to the psycologist on monday and then from there i go to a psyciatrist. Heres to finally getting past my past.

My youth pastor told me that I cant be who i need to be if i am stuck on what happened to me.. And its true

Hello Alyblueeyes. Well done and keep on believeing in yourself. You cannot move forward if you keep looking back over your shoulder. Be like my sunflower - always face towards the light to show you the way and leave the nasties behind in the shadows where they can't hurt you.

Sending a bunch of blessings and cosy hugs.

that's good. It's good when we find someone or some people who really help the situation.

Thank you for sharing. It is true that no one can go forward when always walking backward. Walking backwards takes us further from where we really want to go. Now has enough obstacles without added past ones too. I am happy that you found greater understanding. You are in my prayers. God Bless.

Just want to say how great your post is. That is some real progress. I suggest you let your pastor, psychiatrist, and psychologist know that 'letting it out' really helped ... that is important for them to know. You don't have to leave out that you are NOT 100% ... mention that too.

Good luck. You might be on a good road to recovery.
