Hi @Glisten and welcome to the forums 👋

[Glisten]

Hello 👋🏼 @Faith-and-Hope thank you for the welcome.

I want to be able to tell my truth and not cry. I wonder how I get to be there?

Hi there @Glisten ,

Be yourself. Give yourself time to heal. Practice self-compassion and know that you deserve the best.

Over time, as you engage in the above, the will come a point where you can say what you need to and feel empowered by it.

I've done it. So can you.

THANK YOU @tyme I needed that 🎁 gift

That's what we are all here for.

These forums were a godsend to me when I was in some of my lowest times.

I hope you find forums helpful too @Glisten .

Most, if not all, here have had their fair share of experiences. These experiences help us grow. Sharing them can help us grow. 

I'm here if you need a chat.

[Faith-and-Hope]

You take a healing journey @Glisten.  No contact (if it’s possible), the passage of time, lots of self-care including friends and laughter.  Take it in baby steps and just “keep swimming” ❣️

@tyme  Is there any CBT written exercises to change mind MAPs Meanings and Perceptions?
