Since we've nearly tipped the last one over the 1000 posts mark, here's the new thread for cvq and for her friends to help this lovely lady to keep on getting better.

How would you feel about posting it and getting it withdrawn? It may not happen immediately, but there are not that many people around just now, and so very few would read it.

petal, listen, there is only me and Habbibu and you here at the mo and I'm sure Habbibu is with me on this, you can say whatever you need to - you will not get into trouble. If you want to get the post deleted after you have written it, you can request MNHQ to delete it. Then it won't be there forever to haunt you - but you will have got it out. So go for it without fear.

x-post but said same thing - see, we are on the same side for you

Habbibu · 13/09/2008 01:21

Yes, I completely agree, tw.

be brave lovey, just go for it, don't worry about spellers or sense, it won't matter, so long as you feel you're expelling it from your system

Habbibu · 13/09/2008 01:25

try to think of this as a safe place for you to vent - you won't get into trouble here.

Oh, darling. he did an awful, terrible thing to you. I'm so so sorry. Please don't be sorry for telling us. You poor love. I wish I could hug you.

well done for getting that out onto the screen. That must have been incredibly hard. Oh love. What a fucking bastard. There just aren't words strong enough to describe him.

Habbibu · 13/09/2008 01:32

you still there, darling?

OP posts:
thumbwitch · 13/09/2008 01:32

don't be sorry lovey, you had to say it. I'm for you that your dream has taken this route - is it normal? If you can answer, did that happen in RL?

If you want to email me instead, my email is [email protected] - feel free to do so if you want but I won't mind if you don't.

CvQ · 13/09/2008 01:37

yes it did

Habbibu · 13/09/2008 01:38

So sorry, love. Have you dreamed this part of it before?

OP posts:
CvQ · 13/09/2008 01:39

no

thumbwitch · 13/09/2008 01:40

you poor, poor girl - what an absolute sick monster. and yet still so very proud of you for getting to where ypu are now.
(((((((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))))))))))

Habbibu · 13/09/2008 01:42

oh god. I'm going to say sorry now in case anything I say is really crass or stupid. Do you think that maybe your subconscious mind is going over what happened to you because you've started to open up about it more? Kind of like opening up the wound so it can heal properly later?

OP posts:
thumbwitch · 13/09/2008 01:43

is it possible for you to look at this as a further step in your healing path? Because you haven't dreamt it before, it was probably buried deeper than other bits, so if it is surfacing now, that is a "good" sign in one way. Obviously not in others.

CvQ · 13/09/2008 01:43
Sad
thumbwitch · 13/09/2008 01:44

habbibu I think we must be brain-sharing here but you type faster than I do.

Habbibu · 13/09/2008 01:44

cvq, you are so great, you know. so brave. I'm so sorry you were hurt like that - just so horrible.

OP posts:
thumbwitch · 13/09/2008 01:46

what would you like to do now, pet - do you want to talk more about it or be distracted more? Your call..

Habbibu · 13/09/2008 01:46

I know you're so so sad, darling, and I don't blame you. If what's happening is what tw and I both thought (!) then it is part of the healing process. A really really hard and horrible part, but maybe a sign that your mind is feeling able to cope with "looking at" things you had had to shut away before.
