Various words of wisdom I've come across and like

 The Second Wound is for every survivor whose loved ones failed to support them and instead, added to their pain and trauma. You are not alone. 

You ARE worthy of respect, compassion, and love. 

          By Miranda Pacchiana, MSW

It’s hard to feel worthy of love and protection when the people who are supposed to love and protect you the most turn their backs on you for telling the truth.

Fear makes us afraid of the dark

Shame makes us afraid of the light.

        From Harriet Lerner, from the Dance of Fear

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If people don’t believe you, one of three things might be happening:

1 They are abusers, themselves

2 They are being abused

3 They are benefitting from the environment.

“Truth is like the sun. You can shut it out for a time, but it ain’t goin’ away.”

Elvis Presley

No matter how long you’ve traveled in the wrong direction, you can always turn around.

If you talk to God, you are praying. 

If God talks to you, you have schizophrenia.
