Traumatic Experiences Community Daily Check-in Saturday 19th of January, 2019

Happy Saturday to you! I am soo happy to see you round here and I do really look forward to hear from you, I have really missed you all! 
How are you feeling today? :)
How has this week been to you? Is there anything you would like to share about it? :)
Soo, I usually have some topic to these check-ins but this week was hard for me, and I found myself in the usual situation when I feel like I just do not want to bother anyone with sharing it or do not want to just "hi-jack" an already going conversation or thread and I still have to remind myself often that my feelings matter and there are people out there who care.
And yes, there are people out there who care about you, I do care about you and you are not bothering me at all and I am always glad to hear for you. :)

So this is exactly what this post will be about. I mean, I want you to feel free to share whatever you may have on your mind without "bothering" anyone here or without the need to "hi-jack" an already going conversation :)
So, do you have anything on your mind you would like to share? :)
I would love to listen! 
Of course, there is absolutely no pressure on you here, if you want to just say hi and sit with us that would be amazing as well and we can even build a pillow fort if you want! ^-^
I mean, just having you here is really awesome on it's own :)
Also, feel free to join @Hoxenos, @SoftWhispers and @MelSue84 for a discussion on Positive and Negative Coping today at 3:00 PM ET :)

hi red. i'm sorry you're feeling this way and just wanted to offer my support. if you weren't taught about feelings it would be really hard to teach your kids. i'm sure you're doing the best you can and i hope you can find a way to be kind and patient with yourself.
@RedHawk6547 - tagging them for you so they will see for sure :)
@redmark
thanks! for some reason when i reply to people's posts it doesn't always tag them and just puts my post at the bottom. not sure why :)
@crimsonSpruce612
Thank you for your support it means a lot to me.
@redmark
hi redmark. just wanted to say i always appreciate your fun, positive checkins. i'm sorry you're having a bad week but i offer you the same support that you always generously offer to others 
Hey there @crimsonSpruce612 *offering safe hugs*
We are really glad to have you here with us! 
Thank you very much. I mean, I always appreciate feedback - I have a lot of self-doubt often - and it is always just really nice to hear that I may be of help to someone :)
Also, thank you very much for offering your support. I think with the weekend being here having a bit of a break it is helping me a lot to be able to process things better now. Usually Mondays-Fridays are just really busy for me tho so it's hard then. :)
I mean >this< kind of put me into a bad place, being LGBTQ+ myself, but I would say I am doing better ^-^
Stay awesome! 
@redmark
glad you are feeling a little better :) we all have self doubt sometimes, but you are definitely doing a lot to help others and it is appreciated.
and i'm sorry about your situation in hungary. change is very slow sometimes, but i believe it will come.
Hi...
I'm not particularly well at the moment... I want to put an end to everything... I don't think it's worth living this way... I'm afraid of "them"... and... what has happened today is the straw that breaks the camel's back...
Hey there @M2nc4s *offering safe hugs*
It is always so nice to hear from you around here! 
I do not know where you are from but most of the places have shelters and support systems in place for victims of abuse like you. I mean, it would probably worth to reach out to something like that if and when you are able to do so, so you can get out of this situation and you can start to heal properly.
I mean, definitely, even then, it will take a long time but I believe in that recovery is possible and you are worth it and we will all be here with you to help as best as we can. :)
Stay strong and awesome! 
Hi ppl!!!
I
Hey there @M2nc4s *offering safe hugs*
It is always really nice to hear from you around here! 
Setbacks, as annoying as they are usually happen during the process of recovery. Of course, the word "setback" can be used to describe many different things but usually recovery is not a straight path.
With that said, I can see that you are really lost and trapped at this moment and I want you to know that it is okay to feel angry, scared or just simply cry. Your feelings are always valid and important and we do care about them.
I know you may have had told to you in the future that they are not welcome and you should hide your feelings but I want you to know that it is okay to feel whichever way you may feel and we are here for you, you can always vent here and express your feelings as they are, we would be glad to hear from them and comfort you if we can :)
I know recovery is not easy and I do not want to lie to you, it will be hard for a long time most likely but not impossible. It is possible to recover and it is possible to leave this behind and/or understand your feelings and learn to properly process them :)
Of course, as I have said, you do not have to do that all alone, we are here for you :)
Stay strong and awesome!
