hello, I have a dear friend that is suffering from daily flashbacks. She was abused for 4 years straight everyday. She is lucky to get 2 hours of sleep at night. She is scheduled to get professional help next week. I was wondering if there is any advise i can give her to help her with her flashbacks so she can at least get a decent nights sleep. | Hello, I hope that you might find help for your
friend by looking at the article on the site about flashbacks.
If you click the link below it will take you straight to the
article.
If you keep checking the notice board you might find other survivors will respond with their ideas on coping. Site Moderator |
| Hello it seems that
the months are going by fast and yet nothing feels achieved.
Surviving is one thing but I would like to feel I am thriving.

I have heard that Lifeline in Shetland has finished and I am very sad about this. They were such a support and I miss knowing they were there badly., | I miss lifeline too. I had found it so helpful just knowing it was there and having the number in case i would need to ring. A sad thing that it is gone. |

Some
days all the snow we are having gets me down. Staying inside so much makes me stay inside my head too much. Other days I look at all the beauty and am reminded that healing is possible. March 2nd 2010 |
I have read about the projects
planned in 2010 and feel proud of the SAS and all they do to
help survivors in Shetland.
Thank you all

Another new year for everyone. There are many new things happening for the SAS this year. We have received further funding to continue holding workshops as well as the usual group meetings. Hope to all as the year unfolds. | I am nervous of writing this but I would like it on the notice board. I am a survivor of sexual abuse when I was young. I have worked on lots of my stuff in counseling and am now ready to try and stop using alcohol to get by when I am feeling rough. It feels like a mountain I need to cross but something I am determined to do. Thought if I posted this it would help me be more determined. | Lifeline has truly
been a lifeline to me. They listen and believe me. Anyone out
there needing help don't feel afraid to phone they care and help

Sending thoughts of peace and hope at this time of year. Dec 20th 2009 |
I am scared of
the coming few weeks. I will be thinking about all the survivors
in the SAS and keeping a warm place in my heart for you all. Anon |
This time of year is always difficult for me. I am sure that it may also be difficult for other survivors. I hope that it goes by soon and a new year will bring new hope. |
