(((karmine)))),

It is good that you are trying to keep part of you progressing like you are. But yes, I am sure that these things coming forward are also going to be a challenge too. I found that people around me just didn't understand the significance of what I was experiencing. Most people consider memories are just in the past and to move on and they do that well themselves. But when things come forward like they are with you right now? Well that is different and it was very hard for me to explain that I couldn't just ignore it that easily. It is still frustrating for me to be honest, as my husband seems to be waiting for me to just bounce back somehow. Obviously I have to address whatever comes forward and work through it differently. It HAS been a challenge.

You have to do your best to make up your mind that you will just continue to do your best and be patient with yourself. And I know that getting others to understand it is a challenge. And you have to make up your mind that you just have to address it as it comes forward and not feel guilty for that happening. I know it is a challenge, I experienced that myself. But be patient, it is a process and you just have to work through it and remember not to feed into it.

((((Hugs)))) Just keep coming here when you need support. It is hard to explain to others that don't address it and deal with it, I hear you.
