It's probably one of those things where you always miss those you took the original journey with.
Aeryn-
I don't take it as anyone was slower or faster but that there were different points to work on for each person as they recover.
I have been amazed to watch the growth of all of us, often not because of the similarities, but because of the differences needed.
Triggers are so hard, but I am so impressed that you re-did this thread, put it out there and are problem solving around it....not just for you, but for all of us here.
In my therapy I am finally at the point of saying it, and getting my triggers out there is SO much less painful than not saying it and staying in the same patterns.
I want to thank you for being here and for me showing such long-term recovery that I think most of us so desperately need to see modeled.
