I have an excellent therapist who I have been seeing since August 8th 2006 though I try really hard to talk about my past child abuse and trauma sexual abuse it's still hard I am able to open up and tell her everything but wow I am still stuck I have tried the forgiving my parents and that hasn't worked I have asked god to help me in his name that hasn't worked and this is all very exhausting and what really gets to me is how emotional it is and I am I just am so mentally and emotionally drained and exhausted but I still plug along and do my part so that I can work through it and hopefully put it behind me and let go that is my over all goal,I work hard in therapy I am dedicated and devoted soI have faith I am going to persevere and have the victory and oh what a day that will be,I am encouraged by Carrie to so that is helpful when you have the support and care of your therapist who has faith in you and also believes in you I feel to that this will definitely play a role in me breaking this stuck cycle.Thanks for listening.Kim

I think you are definately right about having a therapist who has faith is you...it goes such a long way towards emotional strength.
I think the important thing right now is that you are talking about what you can, and that you have such a strong goal for the future.
Sometimes I feel that when we get too caught up in the "now" moments, we can forget that it doesn't always have to be this way...Just a thought...
I know what an ehausting experience all of this is, but I am proud of you that you have conviction in your words. I feel that will ultimately be what gets you where you want to go in life.
All my best, Lily

An exellent therapist is the key to working through childhood sexual abuse. I also have a therapist who gives me great support and believes in me. She is my life line. It sounds like this therapist is a great strength to you, and it sounds like you are dedicated to your therapy. Keep up the good work.
