Guest guest Posted March 17, 2003 Report Share Posted March 17, 2003 I am new to this group as of today! I am very glad this group found me! Right now is a tough time in my life & I need all the help I can get. However, I am finding that during the most difficult times in my life, I tend to isolate myslef and push away the supports that are there for me. The pain I feel inside is for my child and it is so deep in my soul that it is an actual gut wrenching physical pain. If I could express it in words it would feel like it goes deeper than my heart - into the core of my soul. I have in the past two months stopped going to my therapist - an awesome woman who I really felt was helping me, I have not returned my girlfriends call who just had a baby, stopped going to my parents of children with special needs support group, etc. It feels like I must contain this pain it is so huge & if I start to talk about it with people it will feel too intense for me. Today is a beginning in that I can write about it here and I am amazed that I am not crying! Has anyone else found themselves isolating when they needed people the most and how or what did you do to get out of it? How do you find yourselves moving forward if you have felt there is no point in reaching out & sharing when you are in pain because you feel no one will really understand what you are going through? Is there a simple affirmation that anyone is aware of that might help me to start saying to move me from this isolating place I have put myself in for protection? Thank you to anyone who took the time to read this. I wish for peace for us all. Joy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
