I just wanted to share this because it makes me feel good about myself and who I am. I went to the doctor today for fatigue and he of course asked me if I was stressed, etc, etc. All of the pyschosocial things that a doctor should ask. Well guess what I was courageous and told him that I was abused as a child and that my family has never been emotionally suportive. I also shared with him who my abuser is and that he is in my family and so it has been increasingly hard to remain loyal to the members of my family and help myself. I was so proud that I was able to do this and talk to him especially since he is a male. Guess what else he was very supportive and willing to listen to ask much or little as I wanted to tell him. I wanted to share this with all of you because I am very happy for myself and knew that you all would be too. Thanks for listening, feel free to comment if you would like and share your own triumphs!

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.

I shared a story yesterday! =] it went great.
I copied and pasted some of my posts on the Friends & Family of Bi-polar community with two of my friends. In the text i talked about my problem with self injury,...and that it is a lot better but i'm still having trouble. About how i am stressed by the idea of moving back in with my untreated violent parent. I never really opend up to them about my homelife, b/c i didn't want them to stop being my friend. While they read my posts, i played as many funny youtube videos as i could find. We talked about it a little,...but i just didn't feel like it. They stayed over till 2am,...and then the next night as well =]
I don't know why i ever doubted them... and i felt loved =]
it's a big step for me
my success story: last week i accepted that it was not my fault that i was abused!!! i feel pretty stellar about myself now. :)
She was brilliant, she calmed me down alot and then made me come back a week later to check on me.
She has referred me to a councellor too so I feel that I am on the first step up on the ladder. Is that how you feel?
It's definately like a roller coaster though so be strong for the future X X
