I live in a high rise apartment building. I've lived in the building for almost 4 years. I rarely sit in the common area. I was afraid of the people. Today I sat there and did some studying. I gave myself an hour. I did okay. A few folks walked pass. I looked up and smiled.

I did okay at work today. Someone at my job decided to air a morning show over a radio. The subject was about Monigue (won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in "Precious." Her brother had molested her when they were young. He told his story on Oprah this Monday past. Well, the radio show invited people to call in. Alot of emotions were happenning inside. Last year, I would have fall'en apart and probably told someone or all that I had been molested. I held it together. I was able to have a constructive conversation without telling my story. It felt good.

I reached out to a friend today. I told her how much her friendship meant to me. I told her that I will call more often and schedule some hangout time. She knows my story. I explained to her how my body and mind works. I told her that I require more down time than most folks and it may take me two weeks to call.

I can fell the old me about to act-out and then it's like I turn on an extinquisher and I put out the fire. Amazing! I really like that analogy!
