Thanks Izzy - comp1 is the one I need to digest... I think. Maybe comp2.
Learning that it's OK to try to get my needs met... and how do this for myself....

Not quite up to where you are, YET!

Oh my....

I thought I'd never get used to having "You are always on my mind" go through my brain but.....

Willie's kinda growin on me, lol.

ps.... Izz..... I get what you're saying about your life being enough.  You've already overcome things you never thought you would.
You're already living a dream.

[Izzy_*now*]

Oh PR I am happy that something is ringing a bell with you, and that you admit it. There could be many who feel the same, reading these posts, and not acknowedge!

As stated on comp1--this is for everyone!

Am I always on your mind? Is that what you are saying re Willie? I can say the same about you. You are always on my  mind, the same as my daughter and grandchildren. Here but not here, with me!!!!!

And yes, I have overcome many things. I was hoping there would be no more, but the 'not standing up' and the 'kiddy car' were not in my thoughts for the future!  However they fit into my life and are not a bolt from out of the blue, as was.......well I guess the accident and being banished by my (then) son-in-law.

I hope you are well and getting settled. I am alwayd surprised, but happy to see you post when I know you are so busy!!!

Love ya
Izzy

Iz,

Thanks for the listings... and for showing us how to save them. I didn't know.

This is such good stuff. I've saved to desktop the Compassion one and the other re: Feelings under different circumstances
and hope to go through them with a fine tooth comb, beginning this weekend.

And Iz.... I can't picture myself doin collages about life, either.
Still, to this day, I'm amazed to be free (mostly) from those who - as you say - are toxic and belong on the other side of that fence.
Not so long ago, I thought that NPD-ex would never quit stalking...
and the rest of the bunch - - - well, it's been 7 1/2 years physically removed and I still breathe a sigh of relief regularly.

Not sure I'm ready to consider what might be "ideal". In fact, I often think that most likely I wouldn't recognize it if I was in the midst of it...
which just maybe I am!
When is it ever enough?
When WE say it is, I believe.

Love,
Carolyn

Izzy-

It hurt to read that you will not be standing up in future, and the many new difficulties that you face. So unfair, so unfair... Please get all of the help available you proud creature- you deserve it.

Your insights, as always, are right on and apply so well to healing from the effects of Ns-The idea of mapping out goals and lifepaths anew is so important. Until I can get free, legally, I have to disentagle myself from Bagworms machinations, tying me up financially and in terms of time and effort and my thinking about myself and my life.  If I don't reorient my thinking my life remains centered around the Bagworm!!!!

Placing importance upon the tangibles and the intagibles- seeing the value in things not for sale within one's self- this can get lost in law courts, medical offices and business meetings- but is the true measure of our worth.

Love You and Hope All Goes Well With You From Your Friend,
