I have had to force myself to talk about my own challenges, I had thought that others just won't understand how I can be so helpful to others and have a lot of things about myself that have been extremely challenging to me and traumatic. I also understand that fear of losing control too, sharing about yourself opens up a door that can allow others to criticize and judge. There have been many times I was told "it's over so let's not talk about it again", you need to JUST get over it. Thing is, when something really bad happened a lot of things began to come forward and I was told that I did not really process a whole lot of things I experienced in my past.

Do you feel your past is affecting how you feel about yourself and your ability to trust and function in the now of your life?
