I am so sorry about what you went through. Sending lots of hugs if you want them. ❤️

There is no timeline for moving through trauma, IMO. And it's never really about overcoming it, or "getting over" it... it's about acknowledging it and finding a way to live with it. It's about finding a way to control it rather than have it control you. It's not about cleansing, or removal... it's about forging forward, even if you're left with marks.

Learning about yourself is a great thing to do, and I believe that it will take you on that path forward. ❤️
