So many of us women have been in abusive relationships with men who demean, hit, mock, control and in general do everything in their power to whittle us down to nothing. If you are in a relationship you're not comfortable with because of any of these behaviors, You Are Not Crazy is an excellent resource providing insight for understanding your situation, and encouragement to give yourself permission to leave.

 

 

 

Healing the Soul has a poignant blog entry entitled Why Didn't I Tell Someone?, a story which far too many sexual abuse victims know by heart.

My Guestbook

Hi Dreamer,

Your journal is well put together, and an interesting read. Thanks for visiting my journal on Blogger.

I really love coming to here to just read over and over the different blogs. The words are comforting in that just knowing that I am not alone and (sadly) there are others who understand the often confusing aspects of being DID. Thank you for getting this out there.

You have touched the hearts of many with this wonderful website you have created. Their are many talented people among us, and the ones I most admire are talented writers like yourself who chose to cover the subjects about issues that really matter. I tried to put you on my follow list so I would be updated with all new entries. But I think your journal is set up different, so I was not able to do that.

Hi Bro,

Nice site. Some useful and knowlegeable comments man :) I know, I am creeping,lol. Hopefully I can produce something like this myself. Who did you get your templates from?

Hopefully some of you folks might possibly help me out a little here. I am looking for someone who I was reliably informed told was a member with this site. They used to use the name 'loopylaughs'.


Because I am hoping to start my own site on health related goods for goods such as: [url=http://www.buyteethwhiteningstrips.com] home tooth whitener[/url] (hence the where did you get your templates from,lol) but am having realllll difficulty getting hold of dropshippers for these goods. I had been in touch with this guy but my PC got stolen and unfortunately had all my contact details on it (I know, I know, should have backed it up :( )

So if you guys have heard or seen anything of this guy could you pm me please? Failing that maybe one of you folks knows someone?

Plus, which hosting do you use as I keep informed bad stories about the host I am thinking of hosting my site with. Plus any other informative tips you can give re starting up my website would be useful and very appreciated.


I hope that one of you has helpful information about this

Thanks Buddy,

Thank you so much for sharing your life and experience with DID. We love blogging and had been wanting to do it again after leaving it behind for awhile. You helped spur us on to start our own blog about living with DID.. People need to know that those of us with DID aren't crazy, we're survivors in the hugest sense of the word. Enjoy your autumn!

A friend of mine referred me to tis page. And although painful to see the reality and not be able to deny like i have been the past two months, it has been of great help. I did not know some of these things were normal, and it explains a lot about us.... Thank you for providig this informative site

For those who don't yet know it, this blog is a precursor to a dream fulfilled. Wait and watch . This is about to go from good to great.

Wow, Natasha--are you just buttering me up so I'll tell you the secret of good bread making?!

Well, I had to laugh when you said I probably already know what a great writer I am. Ha, you obviously haven't the same sense of writer's insecurity as I do, or you wouldn't say that.

I like your writing style, so please don't give up. If it's in your blood you won't anyway.

I'll be very glad to have you hanging out here just as often as you like. When I'm not so tired (it's after midnight here) I'll see if I can give you some bread making tips.

Thanks again for stopping by and for all your kind comments,

Beauty

Hi there,

I just stumbled across your blog, read a few of your posts, and had to tell you that you are an amazing author (of which I am sure you're already aware.) However, let me tell you: You know that 'near-holy' experience that you mention, that comes with reading something so beautifully and lyrically written, so diffused with truth that it makes your heart ache? Well that quality is all over your blog here. Reading your entries makes me brim with all sorts of emotions, the greatest of which is probably awe... I always hoped to be a great writer one day - or a clever writer at least, but the talent never found me. I write anyway, and suspect I always will. That, for now, is enough for me anyway.

I'll probably stick around here, if that's okay with you... You seem like a great influence, and someone I could do well to keep up with.

Kind Regards,

Natasha
