You're doing a very courageous thing in getting help for yourself, so you get a big "WAY TO GO" for stepping out. One of the things that has helped me most is journaling. I just write everything down as if I were telling a best friend that is completely trustworthy. Sometimes I start off writing "I don't feel like writing today because. . ." and then I find myself getting things off my chest. This has also proven a great way for my inside family to interact with me - the ones who are old enough and know how to write. I'm new to this board also, but so far I've found the people here to be very warm and welcoming. They're a good group.

As my therapist often tells me, "trust yourself, and trust your process" and you'll get through this. -Janesgang
