It is...I'm sorry you're struggling with this again. It is too bad that you carry this with you and wrestle at the difficult times. My guess is that you didn't cut at a younger age because you believed the illusion that you were unconditionally loved. If you think about it, you began cutting when the truths about the family relationships with each other and with the church began to break apart and left you completely vulnerable.<BR/><BR/>I know it is a difficult thing for you, but I agree that writing instead of cutting. And work hard to remember that you are imoprtant to lots of people. And I'm right at the top of the list.<BR/><BR/>I love you, girl.Lyniluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04742585512852240355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15229872.post-52194181647964716342008-01-14T21:57:00.000-06:002008-01-14T21:57:00.000-06:00Lots of pain in those words, I know.

So the memory of being 3,10,and 12 are literally at that level of maturity.As an adult you can't rationalize it because they are child memories. You need to heal that child in the inside. She is still afraid and hurting. It takes alot of time and alot of 2 steps backward and 2 step forward. It takes time.You did the best to cope with your mom because you were a child.Write all you need. It helps immensely. I had to heal my inner child as well because I was sexually abused as well and it took forever to forgive myself for liking it at times. I was 7 when it started and it ended when I was about 13. It's hard but you are a survivor.Kerryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07956589288032732653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15229872.post-44387006075034078522008-01-14T20:01:00.000-06:002008-01-14T20:01:00.000-06:00Please continue to express your feeling here it gi...Please continue to express your feeling here it gives me strength to reach out myself.
