I could chose to heal, but I feel I might lose something important in the process. Something integral to who I am.

Trust me, once you're healed you won't miss whatever unhealthy there was in your system. Because you won't care about the same stuff anymore.

Anything that prevents you from healing is nothing that you want to keep. When you're truly healed you will never be worse for it.

@ostfuidctyvm I understand your meaning. But I’m here because of decisions that I made, that I still believed were right. And that if others had tried as hard as I did, would have turned out for the best.

@SWGhost The decisions you made were what you felt were best for you in the moment that you made them.

If you had a physical wound, you wouldn't sit there until you bled out. If what happened was severe enough that you need to heal from it, you'll always have these scars.

Healing isn't about erasure, nothing will take whatever you went through away from you... it's about forgiveness so that you can move forward without carrying this all consuming pain with you wherever you go.

I healed it was horrendous! I actually felt like I had died within.

Then I felt amazing, like brand new.

Healing is a process. As long as you have had the experiences, its a part of you.

Diamonds are forged under pressure. They are one of the stronges minerals in the world.

I feel similarly, but also in a different way - that if I heal I may no longer feel so deeply for a particular person. I am afraid of that

Yes, you have to learn from experience it and it makes you who you are. Get over it but don’t forget about it. I guess. Is the way. Not that I know a lot about you or your issue.
