Sunnydays, I am with you on this. Just in the last two days, I have rec'd information from family members that is in conflict with each other. So whom do I trust. I throw my hands up. I don't know who to trust. So in this instant, I ran to my therapist and said here it is, I am dumping this in your lap to help me. At least with him, he has committed to me, to help me. And he did . He helped me sort it out. First time in my life, I have had anyone that is objective in this area that helps me sort things out without an hidden agenda, that helps me sort things out like this. Who is committed to helping sort things, wants to help me trust, understands my background of severe trauma, understand my DID, knows what that is about, isn't afraid of it, believes it and in me, and is committed to stay around. Wow, I have NEVER had that in my life. I have found out things in the last two days that have knocked my socks off. You see my DID have robbed me of my memories in totality. So I have to depend on family members to tell me or flashbacks to fill me in. So if they are in conflict what do you do, who do you believe. Without a third party I would have thrown in the towel and gone off the deep end. I need to depend on him to help me, I am beginning to finally trust him. I cant trust my family. They are the ones that abused me in the first place. The pay part is irrelevant. The time is irrelevant. The commitment and trust is priceless. And it is the first time is have been in my life.
