Thanks. I'm sorry about your traumas. I don't think you have to share about anything you don't feel comfortable sharing, especially on a blockchain. For me, talking about my trauma helped me begin recovering. You may want to follow @lauralemons if you haven't already. She writes frankly about trauma.

Thanks! I appreciate that. For some reason, I just felt really compelled to make mention of them in my reply, and since I was feeling okay with it, to a point anyway, I decided to let it out. I know talking will help, I think I've just held back so much for so long that it becomes almost second nature to remain silent. I have actually been considering beginning to write about them online, where I can still at least hide behind a username while beginning to help myself to gain confidence about speaking out. Thank you, I will check out her posts! I appreciate it

I have to admit that the idea of the blockchain makes me a little hesitant about writing details of certain things. On the other hand, in the early nineties I sent a letter to the editor of my city's newspaper identifying myself as a childhood sex abuse survivor to protest a proposed Oregon referendum that would have treated gay people as if they were equivalent to pedophiles. Writing that letter was empowering for me, and I was delighted when the referendum failed.
(To add another chapter to that story, when I lived in Nicaragua, I met a Nicaraguan-American who had lived in Oregon a long time and whose wife tried to help pass that bill with his money. He became a friend and translated for us the night my husband was injured in a robbery. It's an odd world.)
