For survivors everywhere, we can sometimes we feel we don't fit in with others, in part because our experience was very different to theirs, and trying to explain it is challenging.
This was also true of us as children, and is to be expected. If you are struggling with this and it's feeling big, maybe consider that: 'In the not fitting in you are teaching people something.'

Its' not their fault
The survivor in your life, may still feel its their fault, that somehow they caused the abuse to occur.
Although to you , it may seem unusual they feel that, please understand: as children they were conditioned to believe they were wrong, and actually caused it.
They didn't have ability to understand they were being lied to and deceived.
Help them to see that!

Survivors
Before any action is taken, lies the thought that precedes it.
Before any thought occurs, lies a feeling.
Doesn't it make sense then to maximise that and feel as good as you can?
Everything comes down to how you feel, and for survivors that can be a challenge in itself. How do you manage feeling good when you are feeling triggered??
How can you have your thoughts and feelings impact your actions so you are in alignment?
Have a listen here, I know this will give you pause.
