i have started trauma work its pretty hard with my ex t i used to write stuff down and she used to read it, with this t she wants me to talk about it and lately i dissociate in session when we talk trauma but we do grounding skills, it has helped me feel validated and after so long of keeping it a secret its a little relief but it sure is hard alot of emotions involved especially when you have to wait for your next session but i feel safe enough to discuss them briefly without too much detail yet i write down the title of the events of my csa i have a long list which i havent touched yet but the ones i have have been extremely shameful in one way and a relief in the other
