      I have finally unburdened myself. It’s a positive thing but it’s something I’ve been carrying for over 2 decades so it feels dirty that someone knows something so private about me but it’s a step I had to take so I’m glad it’s out of the way

      Well done. It will get easier. It was never your shame to carry 💕

      I was a bit mean saying that invalidated my feelings. I’m not at a place where I can think that to be honest. I feel really sick. I had to do it though 😢 I am kind of proud of myself for doing it but it’s mixed with feeling like what happened not that much of a big deal so I’m blowing things out of proportion. I need these feelings to go though. I’ve hid them for too long 💖

      Well done. That’s a huge step. Shame is a huge, horrible feeling. It’s very brave of you to push through that feeling and bring what needs to be brought out to the light into the light. That way it can lose its hold in us. Yes it was never our shame but somehow my abusers managed to transfer ur in to me. It’s great progress and so healing to bring the buried stuff to the surface. You’re so brave and courageous for persevering in wanting to recover and heal ‘yourself’
