*sends lots of warm supportive hugs*
Although I don't yet fully understand my own "defence mechanisms" and only just starting to get the right help - I do understand what it's like to be scared of not being scared. Letting down these barriers after so long is going to be tricky to adjust to at the beginning. It's what you feel has kept you "safe" for all this time, what you had to do to keep yourself safe. I don't think anyone can adjust to it overnight.
I think I make sense. Probably don't.
I just wanted to let you know I understand and send some hugs. Thinking of you. x
