We will always get back what we put out into the universe. If we speak of being defeated and depressed and lost and sad then that is what our life will become.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596522382677342386.post-42864206319079850222010-12-15T07:10:09.858-06:002010-12-15T07:10:09.858-06:00All that I can say to you is what my therapist sai...All that I can say to you is what my therapist said to me last week. "This is a long process." Healing takes time, and this blog helps me to make more sense of things in my mind. I have to get the thoughts out. You can choose not to read them. I shoved those memories down for so long, that it makes sense that they are coming up now.Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05748840293468845389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596522382677342386.post-87260736200432566972010-12-14T12:40:35.901-06:002010-12-14T12:40:35.901-06:00As long as you are a prisoner to these memories yo...As long as you are a prisoner to these memories you are giving your rapists total power over your life. They have won and you have lost. Every single human being has the power to choose the life they want, no matter how traumatic their past has been, no matter how many times they have been abused, no matter how many times they have been neglected. This blog was a tool for you to work through this trauma in your life and maybe after all of this time, you need to concede that it's not working. Yes, you can argue that you are reaching out to others and helping other people deal with their problems, but perhaps you need to start doing it as a victor and not a victim. Be a positive influence in someone's life and stop dwelling on the negativity in your life and start showing people how you can survive! survive! survive! survive! with grace and humility and with no more excuses!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596522382677342386.post-39852888744568733962010-12-14T12:37:29.067-06:002010-12-14T12:37:29.067-06:00(((((((((Angela)))))))))

I self medicated and as you know I too have an eating disorder. Thanks goodness mine has been under control for some years now.<br /><br />Now, back to when the feelings I had repressed for so long came rushing up. They knocked me for a loop and I wound up hospitalized. I had a complete nervous breakdown.<br /><br />It has taken me a long time but I have let go of all of the anger and shame. I have forgiven my rapist and also my abusers.<br /><br />When you get to this point the freedom is wonderful. I always keep you in my thoughts and will pray you find your freedom soon!<br />Hugs,<br />Jackie<br />P.S. The secret is forgiveness!Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05378896151545384221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596522382677342386.post-36572190438961300412010-12-13T12:51:14.620-06:002010-12-13T12:51:14.620-06:00I don't know how to help either, except to off...I don't know how to help either, except to offer love and support, and to say that the raw honesty of this post is as powerful as anything.Flanneryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07505841381044701333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596522382677342386.post-83887418170870006822010-12-13T10:16:12.729-06:002010-12-13T10:16:12.729-06:00I personally know that being raped for ever change...I personally know that being raped for ever changes you.

I was quite numb and dissociated and repressed my memories. I also used the defenses of ED. Both ED and remembering are painful, if you really think about it. <br /><br />My memories especially the bodily ones were the most difficult along with having no control of when I would have a flashback.<br /><br />Hang in there. With hard work, I promise it will get better. Take it from someone who knows.Cluelesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04133271403456164632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596522382677342386.post-20150032557083482872010-12-13T06:29:10.881-06:002010-12-13T06:29:10.881-06:00I wasn't as numb as I pretend, I don't thi...I wasn't as numb as I pretend, I don't think.
