I just had one of those moments, after reading what you, Pamela, just shared. I am grateful for your honesty, astounded by your bravery, and empowered by hearing your story.

Thank you for trusting in myself and others here with such a personal story. And thank you for gently, tactfully leading me and perhaps others to a more appropriate forum to discuss things more openly.

I don't mean to trivialise my story in saying yours put it in perspective. Every case of childhood abuse is a tragedy. But, you suffered abuse on top of physical injuries and pain. The strength it has taken to survive and reach adulthood with your obvious gentle caring nature is what I admire about you most. They didn't break your soul. Good on you! You inspire me. :hug:

DITTO FOR ME !!

Debi from Georgia

Thank you friends for your support, this is the first time I have ever put it on paper. Too both Debi and Debbie, we have all endured, my story no worse than yours, I cry when I read yours and see how strong you are. Please don't misunderstand me, no gentle redirection intended. It was just a thought that occurred to me as it was mentioned earlier a thread for letting it all out would be good and I thought what a good idea and realised these two threads in existence could be just the place. Eva who began this a place to vent has endured similar experiences to ours and much more. I read her posts and marvel had her endurance and her tenacity. She draws on prayer, letting it out and NT support I'm sure.

Perhaps we could join her and post our vents there, it is cathartic to write things out, I know, I've done it a few times now here and there on various threads and apologised to other users. I even got round to apologising for "fluffing" but, getting these things out and sharing is a huge part of healing. There is also a thread dedicated to "fluff" thanks to one of our fellow SCS forum NT users and we could also use that thread to vent... I do feel the release that comes after I've got things out of my head and I really do think it's an important part of our healing. Wherever we write our stories and whenever we write our stories, it's good for us. Holding on like "holding in wind" only makes you uncomfortable.
