I am livid.
My flippin WEDDING PICTURES are triggers now. This is because of all of the family that has deserted me since then, directly and indirectly. I have no one from my father's side anymore. My grandmother, two aunts and uncles and five cousins I grew up very close to. Gone. Because they don't believe me.
I went out on a limb and talked to a reporter a few weeks back, about DID mostly. He kept wanting to come back to the details of the abuse, but I am just totally not ready to say certain things out loud and knew the existance of DID and its treatment is what the article's focus was.
The next day, I got a call from her. Haven't spoken in many years. She wants to know why I am dragging her family's name through the mud, why I am going to a therapist who is putting ideas into my head and why I am lying.
Can't look at my wedding album without being reminded.
I
hurt
everyone
I'll never see those sweet cousins of mine again.
I have lost so many people.
