- I have read every book. I have a stack of clarifying index cards. I have changed my number. I have given it to him. I have blocked him and unblocked him more times than I can count. Three years ago in March I left him. I cannot really let go. I have...
- Some days feel awesome without him and some days feel not so good. Yesterday I was on top of the world. I felt no contact working and I felt myself getting better. I could FEEL the difference. Today, it just hurts and it takes all my will power not...

- I have a panic disorder that has developed in the last couple of years. I know it is the result of trauma. I don't know what to do about it really. Panic pops up everytime there is change in my life, no matter how small. Are there any good books...
- I am very upset this afternoon. I am still letting my abuser abuse me. It is more subtle now but it is there and it is truly awful.A week ago, I got a text saying that he was coming to town and he really needed to see DD and I. We both took time off...
- I have finally accepted my therapists diagnosis of PTSD. She is going to start treating me. Maybe you guys will know about and understand this treatment. The idea is that I have created a timeline of events. She will take me back to one of the...
