How awesome that you have risen out of a place of deep pain and decided to do something to benefit all of us survivors. I admire your grit and wish you the best of luck. I can't wait to see the finished product.

We have a group of us who were going to get together and write a book about MLC.  Each one was going to do a chapter.   :)

Hope you can write something to help people understand this better.

A quote from a recovered MLCer: 
"From my experience if my H had let me go a long time ago, and stop pressuring me, begging, and pleading and just let go I possibly would have experienced my awakening sooner than I did."

I am soo moved by the responses to my post !!  It confirms that I am on the path I was designed to take and I feel just a tad more confident ! It is a huge undertaking for someone like me ... ordinary person , not a writer . Yet.  But more and more things fall out of the universe to tell me to move forward . Slowly. Today will be a rather difficult day . I have a piano bench that will no longer close from a collection of" writing out the pain ".. stuff on stickies, stuff I tore apart in rage now shoved into a baggy to be pieced back to together . So, today , I will open the bench and organize some of my thoughts as I travelled this journey . Some of the scribblings are over 2 years old and I am afraid to feel all that again. I am afraid ... but going to walk right thru it anyway. Thanks over and over for the support and confidence in me !. Stay tuned as I need to tap into all of your hearts as I move forward .
Thank you all.

Wow barbiedoll - how brave and scary.

This is the exact reason that I commented on how brave you are!

We all revisit the pain willingly or unwillingly - however, you are choosing to get intimate with it. 

Good luck to you barbiedoll - you are one strong woman!
