I’ve been surprised to learn recently that healing from trauma can be very painful and uncomfortable. I had hoped it would be cathartic.

      THIS. I thought that getting better and talking abt it etc would feel super good, but it ends with me bawling after every therapy session.... after a while, though, you feel lots better! Don't give up!!

      Oh heck yeah it’s painful for me too… but rn after accepting the pain, I’m at a point that it’s not too painful anymore, so that stage is def a hard (but impermanent) transition

      What an entire mood. Healing for me has caused me to be more emotionally volatile and brought up so many painful emotions
