Hi
Hi all
Just starting out here - not entirely sure I'm in the right place?
Anyhow - I'm user enough - just wanted to introduce myself to the forum.
I'm not sure where to go now - so I'm hoping you kind people may prod me in some direction?
Cheers

Re: Hi
Hi enough,
Lovely to meet you, although sad about the reason for joining this friendly part of the Web.
Open forum is just that - anyone can read here. Suggest searching for a forum which relates to your experiences. Please share only as you feel comfortable.
There are some lighter "escapist" type threads (Our Hiding Place is one) as well as potentially helpful ideas - see Our Positive Transitions or Reading Discussions for instance.
Take your time to look around the site, see what might resonate with you.

Re: Hi
Thanks to you all.
I have made it through Sunday (somehow).
I'm up at the crack of dawn - maybe all the crying will actually induce some sleep....who knows - brain activity more powerful than the much needed rest - will I stay in bed - dunno.
Brain needs reconfiguring, life needs to be shown how to LIVE - i'm functioning - what's the actual point?
I expect I'll drag myself off tomorrow - paint on the stupid hide all smile, communicate - that's what society demands eh? How about the support that ain't out there? Fending off the intrusive thoughts - actually they are memories - difference - YES there's a huge difference.
All the while in this fabulous normal life - I just don't want to be here anymore - no-one out there gives a damn - I'll try resources - but the BIG question is WHY are we left to try & sort this alone?
Good night/good morning - ha I'm up in 5 hrs - sleep, is that for the weak?
Farewell

Re: Hi
Hi enough,
Really hear you that life is a struggle for you right now. But you have joined iSurvive. We care. You are not alone.
As for 3D support, I know it is tough to find best assistance. Are there peer support groups in your area? Any research universities near by? Remember there are 24/7 lines you can connect with at any time. I find that hearing a live human voice or chatting online with someone can be useful, even when I say almost nothing about memories.
Yes, please put on the facade, to function in your adult sphere. It is exhausting, but necessary , to keep semblance of normality, when we have deep pain. It is very unfair. Few people really understand how childhood experience shapes us.
May you have peaceful moments in your day.
With care,

Re: Hi

Nope - no support for me - perhaps my trust issues in the way - yep they are.
Yeah, I'll stop my tears cos gotta be normal - goodness I need an on/off switch.
Massive health service rejection, coping with csa - REALLY gotta sort this alone....gotta work, then goodness have deductions from practically minimum wage to pay into a stupid system who don't want to help.
Ha Ha start today - happy monday - aint that also a band?
See ya

Re: Hi
Hi enough,
I smiled reading your comment about an on/off switch. I'd really like one of those too.
I understand you had health professional/s say "no" to you. I'm wondering if they are the only one/s in your neighborhood? Maybe someone in the next town or around the corner could be useful for you to investigate?
It took me quite a while to summon the strength to discover people with whom I felt comfortable to work. My hope is that you shall quickly find suitable assistance.
With care,
