I’ve been having these childhood flashback lately… things I thought I forgot about… things I acted as though they didn’t exist… those are the moments that I’ve suppressed for so long… and THOSE are the places I need to go to HEAL… the flashback today is a little emotional, I feel angry and sad. I can ACTUALLY FEEL the feeling that I was feeling at that very moment… I was 7 years old… Wanted to share that… it hit me and I have no one to share it with right now…

It’s always good to let out the those thoughts and emotions. You did the right thing by sharing, and thank you for that. I too have these flashback from time to time, but they will slowly subside. Never truly go away, but you will find a way to better manage them. Stay strong Sheriann! One day at a time

Girl. I’ve been experiencing similar flashbacks. It’s been weighing on my spirit. I know I need to keep pushing through in order to heal, but it is not easy. It’s painful. I’m feeling so much anger, sadness, fear, pain. It’s just so difficult. I’m here if you ever need to talk. You’re so brave.:yellow_heart:

I am currently in therapy to address childhood trauma from the ages of 5 to 14. I understand where you're coming from. I am about to begin EMDR therapy. Look into it. It may be helpful.
