What would help you heal or cope with your trauma?

For me...I think if I moved out of this city/state and far away from my abusers, it will help with my extreme agoraphobia and I'll feel at peace. My partner and I are already making plans to move, but have to get stable jobs first. I'm recovering from medical issues and will (hopefully) finish the classes in my field of study to get licensed. Furthermore, he is currently finishing up schooling to get the license in the field he wants. He's actually the top of his class. In his personal life, he hit a few snags along the way (it's a long story...) but is getting it figured out.

We also plan to buy a home and buy some cars....I've dealt with homelessness/evictions, and have had my car repossessed in the past...This was due to leaving my (abusive) ex-fiancé who nearly made me unalive...It was a domino effect of losing my job, home, car, etc....

So...This time around, I want to own a home and own a car to feel stability.

I guess my final answer on what I'm really seeking to help with the trauma is distance from abusers and finding stability in my life...as well as living in a loving home with my partner and son.


Right now, I'm in contact with one of my former abusers (my mother, who was physically & verbally abusive and SA me...) due to my medical issues and me being unable to work, and I live in a place that makes me fearful (this current city/state where I accumulated more trauma...)


I'm hoping to get government assistance while I'm out of work, pay my former abuser back the money I borrowed to prevent eviction, and go back to no-contact...I also hope to save money to move out of here.

I feel very depressed most days, and some of the smallest things can trigger my PTSD or remind me of things I don't want to remember....
