I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps.

I am not sure where you are at in counseling at this point.... however what I have been taught is that, when it is safe for us to remember, our minds lay it on us....
So now that you are away you are physically safe, your mind is so overloaded with things you stored away that slowly but surley memories, feelings and more will surface for you to respond to in what ever way ou can at the moment.

I hope that helped you.
You are not alone, we are all here for you.
so not alone...i'm sorry your going through this...

i'm insanely jumpy still
i've always had issues with personal space...it's mine! lol
but seriously...i've been working on it for the last 3 or 4 months.... i have issues with anyone touching me what-so-ever. getting change at the deli,....whatever
is better now...i hug friends sometimes =]
i agree....paint it or draw it...whatever! i like to do free association wrighting as well...but it takes a long time for me to get into it.
