Don't feel you ever need to use ...Hi Anonymous. Don't feel you ever need to use your name. Giving your name is for YOU and not for us. I hope you understand that. At some point, I hope you'll begin to use your first name or a middle name--anything to help YOU gain ease in opening up about yourself to allow healing to take place. .<br />We're men from all over the USA and a number of other countries. We're also men who are healing. And as we heal, we want to open our arms to others and say, Come and join us." <br /><br />CecAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06561003702809987058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1362373399405910593.post-53299248828881451892017-11-25T13:44:33.254-06:002017-11-25T13:44:33.254-06:00Cecil, thank you so much for your blog.

Thank you for your affirming words and for encouraging each other.. <br />I wish all of us were fully, totally healed from our childhood trauma. We're not there, BUT we're inching forward, aren't we? <br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06561003702809987058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1362373399405910593.post-21034607770498701502017-11-25T01:07:20.498-06:002017-11-25T01:07:20.498-06:00Roger, it is like you wrote exactly what I have be...Roger, it is like you wrote exactly what I have been feeling. It is the day after Thanksgiving. I've been off work for 4 days, spent time with my family, but still feel blue. Why? I want to be over it, but it also seems like I never will be. What to do?

That's so ...Emotions don't listen to logic. That's so true. My wife thinks I should be over it and I no longer mention when I have a bad dream, or just am feeling down from seeing something that triggers negative feelings. I just stuff it for later. I mentioned getting some counseling online because it's cheaper and she said "I thought you were through with that." <br /><br />I wish I was 'through with that' but I'm not and don't know if I'll ever be in this life.Roger Mannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07591791342062150604noreply@blogger.com
