Thank you for sharing; I have many friends affected by the recent tower block fire, in West London. They will need all the help and counselling possible, I hope I, and the relevant people can give it to them.

Wow, I'm so sorry to hear that. I've been through EMDR therapy for mine and it was helpful for about 8 years. It made it very manageable. I've also seen a few documentaries on PTSD and new treatments. One of them is medical cannabis (which is not legal where I live.... yet) and another one was on meditation for therapy. It actually looked pretty successful. I've been dipping my foot in the pool with meditation and seems to help a little. Although I'm very new at it but if it can help a little with first starting I guess that is a win. :) If you'd like the documentary is called "free the mind" I hope it helps. I'll be sending you and your friends blessings.
Thanks so much for the info! I will be checking out EMDR and also the doc.
Check out @ericvancwalton, he has just written a book on meditation, and has put the first few chapters up on Steemit. It looks good, and it should help you.
Remember meditation is a test of will; so don't get too frustrated at first, when you find it hard to concentrate. It gets easier... :-)

I was thinking about you last night and how you told me that you had some friends affected by that horrible fire in london. How are your friends doing? Also how are you?
Thank you for asking, to be honest I have been so caught up with work at the moment, that I have just been suppressing those feelings. We are all in shock, however there are people who this has affected more than us.
A lot of us are caught up with trying to get justice, I think that's our best way of coping. Once I get this week out of the way, I can deal with other things, I am at a bit of a crisis point with my business, and really need to concentrate on that for now.

I understand. I'll be sending you some good vibes for the betterment. Let me know if I can do anything. Also sending your friends good vibes. I believe that the unseen support is a good help as well :)
Thank you very much, it is indeed appreciated :-) We shall hopefully start with the healing process this week...

that's great advice. thank you for the link as well. I'll check it out. I often wonder if I'm doing it wrong. Thanks for the advice. I think I'm going to write today about service animals. After I wrote you earlier I remembered I forgot to mention service animals and therapy animals. They can be a FANTASTIC support system. I had one until about almost 2 years ago when she died. It's amazing the affect they have on you.
