<font color=blue>I had my session today with my psychiatrist. I told her about telling my BF about past issues regarding the abuse. I didn't go into details but I wanted him to know how far I came, he doesn't see it, but he is not me.
I told him how I sometimes got triggered by him, I wanted to let him know, even though it hasn't happened in awhile.
He said at one point to get over it , and I told him it's not that easy, and that it's hard for him to understand any of it, because he never went through abuse and rape, and for that matter anxiety and depression to the extent that I get it.
He grabbed onto my arm and led me out to the back deck and he asked me if I triggered him. At first I thought this was weird, I thought maybe he was trying to trigger me. So I asked him that, and he said no.
I brought this up to my psychiatrist, and she said good for him. I asked her why? She said he's understanding, he asked you if you got triggered, because he doesn't want to trigger you ... I nodded. I can see that now but at the time I was weary about it cause it was a tight grip.
Otherwise the session today was very uplifting and postive. She said that i've come along way in a year with my out look on all 3 topics. That I understand it now, and can help people.
I brought it up to her that someone on this board (i think) said to me, why don't you write a book?
I think I will, whether or not it gets published, that's not important.
I have so much postive energy, and I just want to help everyone.
Well that is what happened today, I know there is likely more, but this is enough.
