I like the "steam" visual. I don't know what in my life is considered "trauma" and what isn't. It's all just life to me. I think finding a therapist that doesn't wince when you mention something is huge. You need her to be strong. There is no time limit on telling. You don't have to tell it all. You don't have to be precise, or accurate. You don't even have to tell details (unless you want to).

You're doing well granite. So brave.
