PTSD

I have been looking at my baby photos and recalling all the good times I have had with them. I am awaiting therapy for Psychotherapy for the abuse I suffered as a child and with my deceased ex-husband. I am going to go into detail about what my mother and dad were trying to do to me after my daughter was born, trying to take her away from me, I have got to come to terms with the past that I never abused my daughter or son, it is what others have said about me and the mental health services. I have been under them since I was 10 years old and I think it is long enough. I am now discharged from them. I don't have a lot of contact with my son or daughter or granddaughter and that makes me sad. I have come to realise that I have done my best for my children, but they have been poisoned against me by my parents and ex-husband. I am looking forward to Christmas with my husband and we may go to church on Christmas day. I am remembering the Christmases I have had with my children and My family cannot take those memories away from me.

Hello Poulson

Thank you for posting. You’ve been through such a lot but it sounds like you’re in a positive place. I hope psychotherapy will help you to come to terms with the past. You clearly have great strength and you’re right, no one can take away your happy memories.

Best wishes,
