I have decided that I will republish my blog. I myself don’t read it as it contains many triggers that lead to depression. I still try to convince myself at times that the worst things that happened did not happen. There are also many memories I remember so vividly that took place during that time that are “painful”, but not traumatic like what took place in Mr. P.’s house. They are associated with that time in my life, but are outside of Mr. P.’s house.
I have a large 3-ring binder with many of my first posts to this blog printed out. Hopefully they contain the date when each entry was posted. I believe my first post was made sometime in July 2009. Perhaps I will start republishing starting in July.
Back in 2009 when I started this blog I was extremely depressed. It may or may not show in my writing. I spent several years in counseling to work through the memories that I finally had to deal with at that time. While the memories remain, they no longer have the same impact on my life since I was able to share them face to face with a couple of therapists from 2009 to 2015.
