authenticity or living an authentic life being true to yourself, your own needs, is possibly what you are saying.
gossip is a terrible thing, a bad habit I used to have. I try to be loyal these days. Loyalty is something I really value now.

I had some self destructive habits–but I have always been over sensitive about seeing people hurt each other. I have a sharp tongue and realized I did it myself. I do try to avoid people I cannot trust to be truthful or I cannot truthfully enjoy being around.

Loyalty is something I do really value, you are right. I have been betrayed on levels that were so painful and public I thought I would die of shame. But I didn’t. There are people I cannot forgive–I have peace from therapy of talking about it…and putting it in a place of closure. On the other hand I forgave debts of Thousands of $ on the condition they left the area and moved at least two states over.
lol the wrath of a woman.

Dear Seaisland:

It was difficult for me to understand much of your post. I think it is vague and unclear. You write that your family members, people in your childhood talked to people one way in their presence and totally differently behind their back and that disturbed you a lot. You were betrayed yourself, shamed to the core and have seen other people hurt by the insincerity you were surrounded by. You were the strong, all together person for family members to rely on, and gave your resources, your money away to them…

Maybe you can rewrite if you would like. What wrath of a woman are you referring to? What was being strong and all together about? How are your relationships, if any, with family members in the present?

I can ramble. I am an animated person and what I say is often acted out and probably comes across unclear written when I am emotional.
I try again later–I am fine, had a day that was loud and unsettling. I have post traumatic stress and some things triggered some bad memories today. I was in no danger or confrontation.
I have settled down now and will leave it until a better time.
thanks

Dear Seaisisland:

Take your time, of course. I know PTSD quite well, I believe. Post anytime. I will look forward to read and understand!

One of my favorite simple habits is simply to unplug and be by myself. I really enjoy doing that, and yet don’t do it enough – or it doesn’t seem enough!

thanks for the kind words Anita
I am back….
I got really anxious because my therapist got assigned elsewhere(wont go into my health plan)
I was in a mild panic about seeing someone new-trust issues.

The military did a mock exercise in a deserted area about 1/4 mile from my house with helicopters, loud ammunition shots late at night.
I didn’t like the noise. I wasn’t mentally prepared.

I am grateful for the military. I got shook up for nothing.
I met my new therapist–it will be fine

Salisha-thanks–good advice, all kool.

Dear Seaisland:

Good to have you back. It is okay if you are back when not doing well as well as when doing better. New therapist, hope new good things in store with the new therapist.
