Being adopted is a curse

Rose113

You get adopted and have to deal with life long trauma, confusion and pain with no fucking support out there for people who are adopted been told I have fucking ptsd but can’t get treatment because it’s to fucking severe apparently

This sounds so exhausting @Rose113. I can imagine it feels beyond infuriating

How are you feeling after this appointment? What do you feel like you need?

I will share some potential options below for support around being adopted:

@Sian321 hurting, I just want help for the past I can’t keep going on with the tormenting of my own brain it’s like being held captive in my own mind 😭 the 6th march is the last opportunity to hopefully get to support. If that appointment don’t go well then I give up just will have to accept that I’m broken and forever stuck like this

I’ve tried Bernardo’s, adoption support UK, oakdalegroup and first4adoption I’ll try the other place that you suggested but I doubt I’ll get anywhere and it sucks
