YOU ARE NOT ALONE - A companion online community discussion board for The Mental Illness Happy Hour podcast with Paul Gilmartin

Hi I started listening to the show a year ago and list to almost all of them.
I started listening to help those around me. My wife was raped as a teen and
Had a wonderful smart daughter because of it but still 11 years later struggles because
Of it. My mom make up stories hard to tell what real or not with her and just gave up
Trying to take care of her she live take advantage of people not sure if she does this on purpose or not.
My dad alway razed me to be a good person so I never did anything wrong but when I was 18 he
Kick me out of the house not telling me why just that I was lazy, a year later I found out it was
So he could do drugs with out feeling guilty. The show has helped to here other people go through some of the
Same things. I've been able to be understanding of my wife struggles and turn her on to the show she never herd
Other people describe what she went throw and help her to know she is not alone.

Your screen name seems rather fitting. I admire how you want to understand your wife's trauma.

Nice to meet you and I hope you find some comfort here on the forums.

A clumsy mistake make fool while helping every one else I realize I probilly need ther most help
