Talking through trauma and PTSD

Re: Running

@avant-garde sometimes the right thing to do is also the scariest thing to do. Please remember - no MATTER the outcome, it will not change the fact that you are walking the moral path. It will not mean that you should have remained silent. Because even if it does all go pear-shaped (which I doubt, but keep my fingers crossed anyway) who's to say that it won't end up paving the way for much greater change down the track? 

 

You've conquered so much adversity hun. You have all you need to survive already within you - I've witnessed your inner power! Hopefully, you won't have to hold this brave face in place for much longer 🤞💜

@Jynx 

I've been giving statements for 15 years and there's still been no conviction, who says tomorrow will make any difference

Re: Running

Maybe it will, maybe it won't @avant-garde... I dunno about you but when I put myself in your shoes, I think what it would come down to is whether or not I could live with myself if I didn't speak up. 

 

Having conviction for ones morals even despite threat to life is something to be deeply admired. To continue to fight even when it feels hopeless, just in case it's not.... Yeah, you're incredible hun. 

 

Alas, tis that time. If I forget to check in with you when I log on tomorrow arvo (around 3pm) pls do tag me if you want company - will sit with ya, debrief if you want to, and provide many virtual cuddles 💜

 

I can't think of words powerful enough to spur you on. How bout... I'll just remind you that I believe in you, believe in your journey, and I have every faith in you and in your inner strength! Hehehe. You got this 💪😎💖
