Glad to see you're still on this side of the soil, Moxie!  |
Oh I am still on this side of the soil. Struggling as usual and no real therapy to help. This pandemic has severely set me back mentally. My husbands cancer, less work means less money, anger as I want to punch the dumb asses in the face who defy masks and science. Yeah, I am struggling daily. I honestly do not know if I can continue to keep my head above the water and not let all my dark thoughts and feelings consume me to the point I give up. I am trying.

Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
