I guess your right...but damn it why is this so hard?

Because trauma is never easy to deal with.

Never sat down and thought of it as "trauma", just "crap that happens".

I'm alive, I have a family. Hell, even though I almost got eaten by a T-Rex(thank God for smarties) I'm pretty sure I don't wanna run from here.

So why do I still feel like at any moment I might need to jump ship? Isn't two years enough to settle in?

Re: 9/1, shortly after 9pm

Sometimes, but not always. Feeling safe and 'settled in,' as you put it, is a very individual thing. It was a couple years before I really settled into the orphanage.

Oh? So, taking a while isn't abnormal?

Re: 9/1, shortly after 9pm

[thisloveisjustice]

No, it's not. And you can't measure your own progress against someone else's.

Oh...so, even if it's over something say...three or four years ago...it would still be okay?

The trama thing...and...I suppose my last family too, they...made things worse...

Re: 9/1, shortly after 9pm

Yeah, it'd be okay, Al.

I'm sorry your last family was so shitty.
