Moving on from trauma is a myth, you only get to move forward.
Often when we think about recovery, we think of the return to who we were before something.
But we need to realize, with every new experience, good or bad, the person that we once were, no longer exists.
What we need to learn to do is redefine who we are, with this new added experience.
