CPTSD

Protector8614 September 4th

Childhood trauma. It his from me till a hug experience hit my heart. The birth of my 1 and only child. My emotions had been suppressed denied silenced for so long I masked pain deep down for years until one day recently a new traumatic experience left me empathetically drained. I was burnt out. My people pleasing and letting people hurt me exposed deep pain I didn't know I had. I'm just a few months into practicing healthy boundaries and holding myself accountable for how I talorate behavior. I'm also trying to put myself first instead of last. And trying to say no with out guilt. I'm tired of feeling lost n hurt. I'm silent and creating space between myself and toxic individuals. Its hard because boundaries and caring for myself 1st are against my nature. But its nessassery and I know this. So I keep going. Can anyone else relate. This heavy heart is painful.

@Protector8614 yeah I can relatešŸ™ it's so hard to become strong after so much bad stuff as happened. But reading this, your much braver than me, still going out, still trying to make friends, and change your life around ā¤ recent trauma, I really hope and pray it was nothing to do with your child. Hugs you tightly ā¤ we survived this long for a reason. Never give up trying, and you will find your reason ā¤
