Well last week was a rough week and not because of Christmas. I found out some facts that really rocked my world. I am happy to know the truth but this has set so many feelings into orbit. As I told my therapist I feel like I am walking through a redwood forest just wandering around and having no clue how to get out. My therapist has stated that I will get through this one step at a time I am not alone in this. The facts involve someone else (that I care for very much) the details are not something I want to get into.

Because of my new medication last month I believe that has kept me somewhat balanced. I am not sure I would have fair out very well before it I am almost positive I would have not so I am thankful for that. Everything seems so fragmented it would be so nice just to get a bit of this under control so I could start to deal with this. This is so big I know it can not happen overnight but would like to able to sort a little out so I can see and/or feel some hope. Thanks everyone for listening.

Be patient with yourself. Time has a way of grounding you when nothing else will.

Hi Snuggles, I'm really sorry you're having to go through all of this
And by the sounds of it, it will take time and you're probably going to need to go through lots of different emotions, and not easy ones.
But as for wanting to sort things out a little.........I'd say that you've already done an amazing job in starting to put together some of the "framework"/support to allow you to do just that, in time...........you've sorted out the most important thing, by starting to talk about it, by telling your T (all/some of??) what has happened you've already made a big step.
And you're not going to be alone!!
Maybe there are specific sites online that can help, maybe there are particular forums on here that can help, but either way you have us too!!
And we can be with you for each of those "one step"'s at a time.
You can make it through this..........things might not go back to just how they were, it might take time..........but you can make it through this.
And you know through all of this, now you know, it might even gradually lead to strengthening your relationship with the person involved. Maybe??
