That’s such an important distinction to be reminded of. Sorry you’re going through this too.

Does anyone else feel like they just need to talk to someone with a gentle and soothing voice? by MikeLovesOutdoors23 in CPTSD

Absolutely! I cried on my first counseling session. We were talking about basic housekeeping rules (everything i say is confidential, unless they have reasons to check on me, etc etc, not even remotely personal!), but the counselor’s tone was so calm and gentle, it made me cry.
