If someone had told me many many years ago when I was in the midst of the chaos of dealing with abuse memories,that i would heal, i would not realy have believed them. But today I can see that its true. I have grown a lot. I see where my scars are but also how much has healed over. Sometimes it all seems just like a distant memory that happened to someone else. Another me.Im so glad I had the courage to confront it. It wasnt easy. Somedays it still isnt. But its not mindblowing anymore.If something comes up now I just look at it and say, do I need to look at this? Sometimes I dont I just let it melt.If I have a bad day I honour that and try to nurture myself.It is possible to heal so if you are reading this and just beginning your journey im at the other end of the tunnel and there is definetly light.
I've been dealing with abuse for basically all my life. But in some ways I've learned to love my past, you know? It made me who I am.
