Thank you everyone for the encouraging responses.
Thank you Always and Larry Hoover for giving me that extra "push" to bring this post to my T and have her take a look at it. Its something that I plan on doing our next session (I've said that before, but I'm going to follow through this time).
I have a huge problem with being able to verbally express myself, but when I sit down and write it, my thoughts and feelings come out a whole lot better (and a whole lot clearer).

You have done an amazingly huge part of the work of restoring your internal state to a healthy one, already. You already know, with clear recollection, what was said to you, and what was done to you.
I do not mean to suggest that this insight is easy. It is anything but easy. Somebody else made it hard for you, on purpose. And you can learn to take that back. You can learn to pull that torturous memory from your mind, just as you can tease a burr out of a sweater. It's a ***** of a job, but it can be done.

Those are words of wisdom Larry Hoover. Thank you for them.
Also, I'm seeing a therapist now for PSTD, but I did not know there was specialized therapy for PSTD with child abuse, that is something I have to look into.
PS: I'll make sure I use the icon next time. Thanks.
