Do you know your Breaking Point?
Have you ever heard of the phrase "Second opinion" in regards to medical advice? It occurred often when a professional medical advisor stated something unbelievable or unwanted.

When the Chaos Stops: What Healing Really Feels Like
This is what healing feels like once the chaos stops. It’s not fireworks or victory parades. It’s the quiet after a battle — a silence that hums in your bones, leaving you unsure whether to rest or run. After leaving an abuser, you begin to understand how much energy survival really took. You were living on adrenaline for months, maybe years, keeping yourself small and alert to every shift in mood, every potential storm. Now that the noise is gone, the body starts to shake loose all that it held.
