@ChristaBrown777 Thank you for putting beautiful words to what I am feelings.for permission to grieve even though we βknowβ we will go on. I stand in solidarity with you and many more as we grieve.
Some peoples' most painful traumas involve how other people-- often people they should have been able to trust & depend on-- have responded when they've tried to tell them about their other traumas.
One of the things that makes trauma recovery hard is, the clearer we get & more stable we become, the more we see & know about people & institutions & situations that we really wish wasn't true.
It's often heartbreaking to actually see what we see & know what we know.
