Healing is being with my daughters. It’s sitting on the couch, watching a movie next to them. It’s hugging them twenty times a day just because I can. That is my healing, and right now it’s also my mission — a full-blown mission to get back to that place of love, safety, and normalcy with them.

Healing for me means understanding that it’s not linear that some days are going to be rougher than others, but most importantly healing for me was the recognition that it wasn’t my fault for a really long time. I blamed myself.

Is it bad that I still feel dirty after my old friend forced me to kiss her when I was 6-7 and she was 10-11?

Being here, using your voice to heal and share and feel less alone - it's more brave than I can properly communicate. You are so strong and I am glad that you are here searching for support and/or to be a support for others.

Healing means everything to me- And honestly you are healing every single day!! every single day!! little by little.

You don't have to have it all figured out to move forward. It's okay to not be okay - things will get better.

I don't know what healing really is, I've never known a life without abuse or mental illness. For me, I guess, healing would mean the chance at having a normal life. I don't think that is possible though.
