In need for support

Hello!

I didn't know where else to turn to as I don't feel comfortable talking about this one with anyone in real life.It would be very helpful to find a listener (preferably-female listeners only as it's easier and safer for me to open up about this to them) I could talk to today and in times I'm in need for some support.

Given health issues doctor sent me to medical massages which I avoided for a very long time because I was so afraid to face my triggers and relive my past.Now I'm at point where there's no option to avoid this anymore and I've started to face my fear and go there but it takes everything each time and it's very crucial I stay there.It would help a lot if there would be someone I could talk about this to lower anxiety, fear and just not be with this all alone to make each time even if just a bit easier as I've to do this for muliple times as recovery will take weeks.

I'll be open to receiving any kind of help but private conversations are the only thing I prefer when it comes to this.We can get in touch around here and go from there.Thanks a lot in advance!

This sounds like a very difficult situation you are in right now and one I can really understand... Because of some severe back pain I had to start physiotherapy a few months ago and at first I have been terrified of the touch, too... Over time it got better though and I am glad I started it, but especially for trauma survivors everything involving physical touch is a tough situation to be in and you are absolutely doing the right to ask for support for this situation... If you haven't found a listener yet, you are very welcome to pm me whenever you feel like and I will come back to you smiley
