Since my first post here, I felt so encouraged to talk about my trauma.

I'm pleased to say I've started doing this. It's been incredibly hard, but I do believe (after the encouragement here & the reading I've been doing) that it's the right thing to do.

My question is; how do I relieve some of this pain? I had a therapy session yesterday that we both acknowledged was tough.

Right now I feel hurt inside. Apart from alcohol how can I help alleviate some of it. It sounds pathetic, but it really hurts. My T is available for another session if I need it but I'd like to try & do this on my own.

I feel so isolated and alone and well frightened and child-like. That's when I have very negative thoughts, and I'm trying to prevent this spiral down.
