can't take it anymore!
Good morning Visitor, in this post you talking about attending a “weekend of recovery some day” just wondering what that’s about and where I could get information on that. Thanks BobAs a newbie I missed all the fireworks. Why am I not surprised that a bunch of trauma survivors would find a way to misinterpret what is being said and act out their feelings? It saddens me to hear about it and, of course, sorry for what you experienced Shyshark. Standing anonymously behind a username is often a recipe for disaster. I appreciate that in a moderated forum like this bad behavior will have real consequences which likely reduces provocative comments. But everyone here is sensitive to being hurt because WE WERE! Sensitive people develop skills either in running and hiding or doing battle, at least rhetorically. I've avoided chat both because I've never used it before and because I prefer one on one exchanges, ideally with the person's face in front of me as one can do in Skype and Facetime. That, of course, in this environment is practically impossible. It saddens me since the men on this forum are exactly the people I would wish to be having deep conversations with about trauma and healing. And that is why at some point in the future I expect I'll be attending a Weekend of Recovery.
I hope unpacking this helped Shyshark. At the very least we can witness and support each other's process of healing. The best to you.

I am also more comfortable in an urban environment than out in "the country" (of course I now know that is also the environment where the trafficking events took place, so it now makes total sense.)the remoteness of the location created nightmares in my mind
I don't know why im just seeing this now. im sorry man. (((Skyshark)))I don't care.
I took this down because now that I've told the facts and set the record straight I don't care anymore
and I'm washing my hands of the whole sorry mess.
It's over.
