Hello!

SauterelleSauterelle Deactivated Posts: 13 Settling in
I have nightmares caused by family arguments and domestic violence mum's previous marriage. I get anxiety so bad it affects my eating. I recently had a heart operation to get well again. I'm related to a former member here: Belle, but she is seriously ill with autoimmune disease. She told me to join The Mix because it's a very safe site. I need safe!

I'd like to teach or become a writer. Books are a special world to me.

    Thanks Laine, but the forum looks complicated so it may take me a while to find my way around! The Mix looks amazing though. :)

    Can you or someone find me advice on PTSD, please? I think this is what I've got.

    Hi welcome. 
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley
