I don't agree that "you can't love anyone unless/until you love yourself."
I do agree that it's hard to genuinely connect w/ anyone if we're habitually disconnected w/ ourselves-- especially our body.
CPTSD recovery is a reconnection-with-ourslves project. Always.

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game.
The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.

And I was the only 19 YO at my “we’re not conservative” church to refute these lies and say “Iraq will end up being our generation’s Vietnam.” Oh how I wish I was right and it didn’t drag out so much longer. I was against an illegal war then and I’m against it now again in my 40’s.
If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:
1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long
All lies.
