Re: newbie
That's so tough @TOXICONE . Do you have supports to help you to manage some of this trauma? It's not fair you have to live with it lingering over you.

Re: newbie
@TOXICONE , are you a reader? If you are, I shall share with you the book that has helped me the most with my anxiety and mental health in general.
Let me know how you like to self-educate: book, audio book, podcast, website, etc. and I'll do my best to help!

Re: newbie
hi @Spirit_Healer thank you for responding, I do enjoy reading as I've never had much in life as I was always in girl's homes and foster care so teaching myself to read was my way of escaping reality.
I have never tried listening to podcasts or audio books. I always loved reading paper books.
thank you so kindly

Hi @TOXICONE ,
I'm sorry things have been always difficult for you.
I hope you get some solace through reading and whatever else you enjoy.
How are you today? What did you get up to?

Re: newbie
This is by far the book that has helped most with my anxiety to date:
See if you can get it at your local library, or buy it if you want to annotate/highlight it!

Re: newbie
hello @TOXICONE . I also have BPD. I'm a survivor of it. It's hard, but pretty awesome too.
@Spirit_Healer , I got a copy of the book. I'll let you know how I go with it.
