Coming up on 1 year antiversary. Established in my own place which means a little more time to myself and that’s OK. Unsure how much BW is “triggered” vs general PTSD, but having a rough go as well- I can only assist on that front...

But really beginning to feel more starved for intimacy. And with that comes temptation, based in most recent memories of “gratification” that are distorted at best. As one can imagine, frequent waking spells, where I, quite honestly, used to be vulnerable to bad decisions.

But now, even half asleep, recognizing what’s important. I understand that’s a sad mark of progress but it’s ultimately a mark of progress. Trying to make the most of things.

Progress is progress.

Remember, only a fool walks forward and trips over the stick behind them.

You’re not a fool. You’re going forward... this all part of it.

Chin up. Keep going. Tomorrow is a new day.
