With how I'm doing. But again thankyou for your kind words. I also do look at challenges in life as being life lessons and I do take away the lessons I've learnt. Sometimes though I do wonder why, I feel like God is not listening my prayers or why I've had to endure so much, as I always was an empathetic person & I do put myself in others shoes & and understand what their going through, I feel I was born that way. Much Love to you. Im happy you were able to work through your life & eradicate pain🙂🩷

So kind of like you Christy, whilst mine wasn't so much due to trying to live up to expectations, mine is probably more trauma based, having been through so much negative stuff in my life. I don't dwell on what I've been through all the time, I just get frustrated at times by not being able to get answers from doctors and specialists etc. So I'm not really sure how to peel that stuff back any farther than I have?

My personality has never really changed either, im pretty much what you see is what you get, and if I'm having a crappy day, ppl would know it, because I'm Authentically myself, I don't try to act a certain way for ppl. Thankyou for your kind words though, yes ppl describe me as being very kind, caring, supportive and that I have a big heart and loving soul etc, which is nice because they say that, despite me just being me, whether I'm feeling good or bad, or being cranky or irritable sometimes, they see & know my struggles & know that it's not aimed at them and empathise

Didn't break my fall I didn't get to put my arms out so, I smashed my head on the concrete, my brain bounced in my skull and injured my back, I was unconscious that whole time, when I came too, I couldn't move as I was in severe pain, lucky a neighbour saw me anyway I caused a traumatic brain injury, which came on slowly, I had moved 2000km away from my family, my kids and my mum as my best friend had asked me to move up close to her, but she'd abandoned me after what her bf did IDK why, so I needed to move back closer to my family, as I had to relearn how to do everything, I worked hard on my recovery, I got better eventually !fter a lot of hard work and quite a few yrs and I kept having many more minor brain injuries & many concussions. I also broke my ribs six of them a few times just as they'd heal I'd have another bad accident eg a motorbike, to many things to mention over my life, so fast forward to now, I had my right arm amputated this year, so yes have many health issues

Just her and I, my half sisters were much older so had their own lives and families etc. So I made a lot of mistakes in life. But I experienced way too much trauma, throughout life, as well as lots of injuries etc.

Then my mum passed away in 2014, so I felt even more lost, even though she was like she was I loved her very much and I know in her way she loved me. I nursed her till she passed. But I felt very lost and alone in this big old world, I didn't have close friends at that point. I had friends just not really close friends, and my best friend and I had become estranged after her abusive bf hung himself, he was gone, but somehow I miraculously cut him down did CPR on him and surprisingly I managed to bring him back, and that messed me up badly mentally and my best friend was a mess too and she chose him and wouldn't communicate with me, then a month later, I had a bad fall from standing on a chair and fell backwards landing on concrete, I was outside for 13+ hrs and I

Christy Overton I didn't end up finishing my story, my story is a bit different to yours, I wasn't molded by anyone or myself to be a certain way, what happened was a lot of S.A from childhood, right up to a couple of yrs ago, by many different offenders. I then married abusive partners, I seemed to have a target on me, which I have learned about why now, but I'd attract sociopath and psychopaths 3 failed marriages, and 1 serious bf, each with narcissistic traits as part of their mental health conditions, which really messed me up badly. After losing my dad I didn't have a good male role model and my mum had, had a very trauma based life herself, she wasn't very present, and she couldn't show physical love, she couldn't even cuddle me, I know she loved me looking back and I understand why she was like she was, but as a child- Teen and onwards I didn't understand forr a very long time. I kinda felt like I raised myself, as she would not be around much and after my dad died it was
