I’m so glad that you’re family were understanding. You did brilliantly to open up and share with them the way you did, I know it wasn’t easy.
How are you feeling today?

Thanks mouse! It wasn’t easy at all. I didn’t know what to do with myself when I was waiting for them to come over. But once I opened up I just felt a huge sense of relief. Today I feel great! Like I feel a sense of calmness and peace. Like these first 5 months I’ve been constantly worried about the stag do and all of a sudden that worry has vanished.

That’s great Humph! You should feel proud of what you did in opening up, it took me a long time to be more open about what I’m feeling, especially the more illogical and intrusive thoughts I have (certainly not saying you’ve been illogical at all!) I still struggle a little at times because I’m embarrassed by some of the things I worry about but honestly when it comes down to it the people that matter have always understood and been more than accommodating even when I could of been taken as insulting. It’s been such a help in me getting to a point of stability (well most of the time ) I think mainly because in talking openly and honestly it helps to normalise what’s happening to us and in that it does get built up in our minds as much, making it much easier to accept and work through.

Oh you did brilliantly, well done. Now that you’ve started talking, Make sure you carry on. Your parents sound wonderfully supportive & I bet they want to help you as much as possible.

Brilliant. 5 months of worrying gone in 1/2 hour. There's got to be a lesson in there somewhere.

Seriously though, now you can relax and enjoy the wedding. I bet you feel great now all the worry has gone.
