How do you put bad things in the past when you are still haunted by them? [The island is rearing up again]

Don't let the past define you. Remember what you felt then...and stick around to spite it. Whatever happened, you're stronger now. Hold on to that thought.

[ She has no idea what this is exactly about but bad things which haunt you... That's familiar. ]

I don't know. The only way I have found is to keep busy.

You remember there's good, that there's still good to come, and if possible, you find a listening ear. Otherwise, keep a diary. No-one sees it but you and it can be a form of catharsis.

Not as good as talking to someone, but it's better than nothing.

Plus, what Kaiba-san's said is right. Don't let it define you.

I'm pretty sure everyone heals at their own rate, but... I can second the writing idea.

And tea. And people to talk it over with, whenever you're ready to do that.

Compartmentalization only goes so far, eventually the compartments break. Find someone you can trust, completely, with your life. Eventually you can open up to them, and talking about it can help. But that's what's worked for me, and I don't know what you've been through compared to my own past.

Hullo Thea, need some tea and chat?

That can be a very difficult thing to do. I'm still haunted by those who helped me on my journey. I wish they didn't have to die but I try and remember the good times. It helps.

Sometimes just talking to them helps too, have you tried that?

[laurefindil]

You take one day at a time.

Kaiba has excellent advice.

If there is anything I can do to help, please do not hesitate to let me know. Nightmares, memories, whatever is haunting you...even if you just want to yell or hit something. I'm a pretty sturdy elf.
