I'm angry that 16 yrs of abuse was brushed under the carpet...even within my own mind due to self-protection and DID. It was brushed under there, and the "mountain of debris" under the carpet caused me to fall on my face for 24 yrs of my adult life. I could never see why. I just kept falling on my face...

I'm grateful that the carpet has been pulled up and I could first see the yuck, then begin the process of picking it up and putting it in its appropriate place in my "house". There's still a small mound that can trip me up... That I'm working on.
