Dear Patrick:
Congratulations on your Day 1, and for accepting your part in your daughter’s decision to walk out of your life. I am glad you felt lighter for sharing, and I hope you continue to heal from Complex PTSD (a complex trauma that was inflicted on you in childhood, through no fault of your own).
I understand that you posted so to cement a promise to yourself. If you would like to post again so to express yourself further, and/ or to ask for input, please do.
