My Sister Is Me Too

It doesn’t get better until you take your control back. I would never tell anyone what they “should do” but in this case, I’ve lived it and my healing didn’t begin until I left w/o a trace. I now control what information I share with the Nex and right now – NONE! I was an open book during our relationship; he kept secrets. It wasn’t easy to leave and stay no contact but it does get better! I truly understand your pain, confusion, chaos! Find a good therapist even if it takes more than one. Praying 🙏🏽🙏🏽 for comfort. You are not alone.

Today is the day we focus on giving thanks for family, friends, health, good food, and the many blessings bestowed upon us. On this Thanksgiving I add an extra serving of gratitude to the My Sister Is Me Too (MSIM2) Tribe of survivors who supported and believed in the My Sister is Me To mission in 2020!

As the MSIM2 support group continues to grow in number, may the number of women and families we bless emotionally, socially, and economically also increase.

On behalf of the newly elected My Sister Is Me Too Board and Officers — we are Thankful for You! We wish you and your family a wonderfully blessed Thanksgiving!

It’s not about us. Their issues demons are not a reflection on us. Notice all their relationships suffer or are estranged? We just happen to care and can’t imagine treating another person so badly, especially someone we love. So we hang in there. It’s time for self- preservation! It’s not selfish to put self first now and begin the healing.

I just left exactly 24 hours ago. It’s an illness and I feel guilty for turning my back on anyone in need. This narcissist needs help that I am not equipped to give. Time for self healing.

Anyone with a caring heart can feel it’s selfish to put self before others. In fact, it’s the opposite. If our tank is empty, how can we help anyone else. So let’s keep our tanks full. Find time, No MAKE Time for self. Self-care is not Selfish; it is Self-Preservation!

Hello Beautifuls! I am very grateful for the MSIM2 circle of kindred souls! Whenever I feel like giving up or that My Sister Is Me Too was a bad idea, one of you Beautifuls reach out with gratitude❤️, a testimony🤗, a word of encouragement 🥳, a prayer🙏🏽 , or a shoulder to cry 😢 on, that reminds me that I Am Not Alone; We are Not Alone; and My Sister is truly Me Too. We all have a story that connects us far more than what separates us❣️🙏🏽💕💚💞

I participated in the ThenandNowChallenge by sharing my spin on the then and now pics with MSIM2 Group. Notice the eyes truly tell the story!

So when I get excited 🥳 about October, I am not only celebrating my day of birth, I am celebrating the Birth of the new ME. The free me; the I made it through the 🔥 ME!

After years of being guarded, silent, unable to trust, ashamed…you name it, I felt it, I finally realized I WAS NEVER ALONE. So one of my gifts to MSIM2 sisters in love this October is to continue to provide a space that reminds you — YOU ARE NEVER ALONE❣️ #MSIM2 #YANA

It’s my Birthday Month 🥳 and as we bring the last week of AFSP Virginia Beach Experience to a close, I find it fitting to share my story; my journey.

My gift 💝 to all of you this month is to share the reasons My Sister Is Me Too (MSIM2) exists❣️ Each day from now until my birthday – 10/18, I will share the 🧩 pieces 🧩of me.

I’ll begin by stating, the past few years have truly taught me the Power of Forgiveness ❣️ 💚💙❣️ #MSIM2 #YANA #BehindTheSmile
