I hope you've been able to heal somewhat, friend! I can hardly imagine how awful that must've been. I'm glad you got out.

I think another hard part of it is wanting to help. It feels so simple to help people, fix things, make it all better "if we only just..."

...and at the exact same time it feels insurmountable, especially when you need to take care of yourself and that's its own battle.
