Lost in a sea of despair
Dreaming of freedom

I feel tormented, as if I will never be free of him. How do I release the little girl trapped inside of me from what he did? Am I crazy to fantasize about the adult me being able to burst into my childhood bedroom and attack him before he can hurt the child I was? Such pointless thoughts, and yet I have them often. I never imagine anyone else...

the sea

There is an entire continent,
between me and my sea.
The waves lap angrily at the land,
but they will not reach me.
But on my island,
I am alone.
Circled infinitely by the sea,
that grows higher and higher.
My only outlet,
to bleed.
But with every slice,
I destroy myself.
With every blade,
I slip further.
The blood flows like tears.
But I...

My story so far...
The Real Amazing Johnny

[font="Arial"]
I don’t even know what Johnny was before, but he was not Amazing Johnny. And I know who Amazing Johnny is. He is extremely selfish. Amazing Johnny’s interests will always come first. He does not go out of his way for anyone if there is nothing in it for him. He truly cares nothing for other people.
Amazing Johnny is...

Collapse No More
Battery about to die.

Anxiety. ANXIETY! So much of it! And with two papers due by Friday, I don't see any change. More later.

just random ramblings i guess
glass

i say
i am untouchable
unbroken
numb
most hours
i am alone
i sit
deaf to the noise surrounding
my shattered heart
i am
some fragile thing
sitting a self
lost within myself
my grief
i will not say
i am glass
glass is beautiful
sharp and contained
i am wild
rough dull
but we share a common past
glass and i

When do you get to stop being worried
when will I get to stop being worried

there is a long history of abuse in my family. My mother, my sister's, and myself. None of these effect me like the suffering of my daughter. She says her childhood stopped at 12 when she had flashbacks. I wanted so badly to stop the abuse with my generation.
my daughter and I have talked for hours about what she has gone through. She...

Bad things come at night

It's amazing how as soon as my daughter goes down, I begin to think about horrible things. I become fixated on SA and spend hours writing poetry or stories having to do with it. I spend all day staying extra busy, but when night comes I immediately begin to think and mull over it for hours.
Night is a terrible time for me anyway. As...

Sometimes the better you are the worse you feel
Nightmares

I used to live somewhere where the abuse was constant. Every time my mom was gone...he'd show up. Each time was like the first and it cut deeper than the time before, building up a scar while breaking me down. I knew it was wrong, I knew I should have told but I couldn't. Every time my mind wondered I'd just shut down and I'd find...

Falula's Random Stuff
Making Amends To The Person Who Molested Me
Background…
I have a friend I'll call Bob, who is very confrontational and I found myself getting angry with him quite often in our conversations. I told him about my feelings of anger and he said it was because he didn't pat me on the back and say "poor Janice" like everyone else does. This made me still more angry.

Hidden Truths

I found this just recently in the newsletter from March 2009 on Pandys. The core message holds a truth that all survivors need to hear.
"Take a carrot for an example.
When you grate it, it's still a carrot. You can cook it, grate it, chop it, boil it, mash it. You can do what you want to it, but it never STOPS being a carrot and...

Stream Of Consciousness
You are my hero

I am 24, which feels very old. One of the reasons, though, is that I remember knowing 2X-year-olds and thinking they knew/understood/experienced so much.
I am just coming to terms with many of the "bad things" that happened in my life. I have also, for many years, been aware of the fact that I was suicidal for a very long time. If not...

Life as a survivor
Hate Hate Hate menopause

No sleep and pain in areas of my body that causes flashbacks and memories. It seems when the good things finally get into my life and I am starting over in a new place and happy, the full force of menopause hits me. I have been going through this mildly for about a year and in the past three weeks it is like my body has decided to hate me. No...

the two thousand year stare
struggling; remembered some things; flashbacks

I have been trying to be well, but something opened the "shoeboxes" in the closet of my mind.

I keep experiencing the smell and taste of blood. I don't know where it is coming from. Maybe it is all in my head. I am hurting in the places I was hurt long ago. The slightest thing, the littlest reminder brings...

mom
this is a letter to my mom she will never read
friends come and go

sometimes it is hard to let go
sometimes i remember your face and you smile
i remember the way we used to run and play
the days we were so innocent
i remember the way you and i used to talk
the day i asked you to marry me.... we were what 8?
i remember the way you and him used to wrestle on my front lawn to show off..
i remember the way you...

Just Someone
Why did you stay?

In the first month of us dating you told me I was chubby. You soon moved onto comparing me to my friends, telling me I came up short. Eventually I'd share was I thought were faults and you added to them, giving me new food for thought I had never dreamed of. I had lumpy knees, a double chin and disappointing bra size. On top of my body's...

processing anger through kneading bread and other great ways to "get all the yucky feelings out of your system"
Star-lit healing, day-lit hope

I have just emerged, recently, from a black-cast color: the dark color of dissociation and the broken memories that never seem to reflect a whole. I had been in therapy when it happened. Triggered by other members and their own recollections, I felt as sick and detached as I had when I was 7, getting attacked, it seemed, in real-time. I felt...

Being a survivor
only yes is yes

No is no. Maybe is not yes. If you force or manipulate someone, it isn't yes. It isn't consent. If he or she is underaged, it is no. If you have a weapon it is no. If you are her or his partner it isn't automatically yes. It can be no. Everyone has the right to say no at any point. We can change our mind. We do not owe you anything....

Cus I Drank Too Much

I still have a split in my lip
the proof of my addiction
as it burrows itself deeper into my face
and I cry
begging it'll leave me
like a ghost I never knew
beg it to let my spirit go
leave me so I can heal
but all I want to do
is let it eat me away
till death
under it's pressure
(or love, as they say)
((none of them ever loved me
I was...

My completely random thoughts and feelings
R**E is NOT a lighthearted joke! (possible trigger)

(I want to warn you that this entry may possibly trigger, please take care reading)
I am not always the most 'politically correct' person. I like to joke and carry on, and I am loud... Even though I may not always be 'proper' and I do make mis-steps, I always try to be considerate and mindful of others. I try to remind myself that...
