I was just thinking the same thing about myself. I don't have an abusive history, a terrible childhood, or a difficult diagosis. Sometimes I read other's stories on here and feel guilty for being in a place where I can't imagine the turmoil they have been through. I feel like I shouldn't be asking for anything or wanting any sort of praise, compared to what they deserve.

However, I think that a lot of people on here would say that it is about YOUR process and no one process is more important than another. You have expirienced things in a way that no one else has...and you are learning to deal and process it in your own way. I feel like in my 23 years, I have expirienced more than most people my age and my process is about learning how to deal with everything and move in a more healthy, positive direction.

You are going to therapy, for whatever reason, and that deserves praise in itself. No matter what your issues are, they are issues to you. You are brave for knowing they are issues and wanting to worth through them. Therapy is hard work, if it wasn't than the whole world would be doing it (and in my opinion they should).

I love reading what you have to say, and care about your process just as much as anyone else's. Keep posting about ANYTHING you want to share...it IS significant

Thanks for this!
