Somebody needs to hear this but they lied to you baby. They stole your fucking heart and soul just because you were there, just because they could. THEY are the monsters, not you.

here’s to all the people who have trauma that would be ‘silly’ to anyone over the age, of like, 10. There’s not a set number here.
to everyone who has a legitimate trauma response, even disorders like PTSD, from something as simple as a bee sting or getting lost in the super market one time.
it may seem dumb. something that isn’t ‘real trauma.’ but it effected you just the same! and that’s okay! you’re completely right to be impacted by it, even if it’s ‘small’.
you might’ve been young. (too young to have a decent grasp of what was scary or not.) you might’ve already been a victim of trauma, and develop more easier than others. maybe it was some other thing.
everyone’s brains works differently. if that means developing trauma easier, then that’s that. you shouldn’t feel ashamed or like you don’t need help because of it. you aren’t alone. there are people out there who will listen. I promise.

if someone abuses you, no matter what they say or do, you are not the problem. you are not at fault. you cannot deserve abuse. the way they treat you is a reflection of themself more than it will ever be a reflection on you. you are the victim and the survivor. you got this. keep your head up and remember there are plenty of people in this world who care about you. you just need to find them, and let them in. ♡

Shoutout to all the kids that had to "grow up" early to deal with home life. The kids that had to become caretakers for a family member. The kids that had to become a parent to their younger siblings. The kids that had to learn early how to fend for themselves due to neglectful parents. The kids that had to learn how to be "perfect" to avoid abuse. The kids that had to survive homelessness and poverty.
It's so hard, I know. You may feel like you just want to scream. You may feel like you can't connect with people your age, and you might be tired of adults telling you "you're so mature". There is so much responsibility on your hands and you're doing amazing. One day, you will be able to have freedom. You are so, so loved and appreciated. I hope today brings you any amount of rest.

It’s okay if you love your abuser(s). It doesn’t invalidate anything they’ve done to you.
It’s okay if you hate your abuser(s). It doesn’t mean you’re a bad person.
It’s okay if you feel nothing about your abuser(s). It doesn’t mean you’re broken.
It’s okay if you feel a mixture or all of the above or even go back and forth. Feelings are complicated and whatever you’re feeling is valid.

To all men with T3RF/GC/Transphobic parents please know you wont be trapped with them forever. You will be able to escape your abusers and live freely as yourself. I know it’s scary right now to be stuck with people that don’t accept you but I promise making it out is worth it. You deserve happiness and a life away from abuse.
Please don’t add to the 42%.

sometimes I look in the mirror and realize I'm seeing an adult and wonder how I even made it this far. I'm proud of myself. I never thought I'd live to see 19 like this

Something nobody is gonna tell you as a child abuse survivor is that you're gonna have to fight your way through your childhood in order to fully live and survive in this world. There are still adult responsibilities you are gonna have to claw your way through understanding and painstakingly asking for advice and learning how to do for yourself. How to apply for a job, how to do an interview, how to file taxes, how to get an apartment, how to keep track of bills and rent, how to establish and keep track of your credit, how to keep yourself from bankruptcy, how to get a doctor, how to get insurance, how to have a stable life all on your own. And this shit is 1000x harder to understand when you've got repressed memories of abuse, violence, sexual assault, etc. constantly interfering with your daily life not to mention the hopelessness that comes with having your entire body and soul shredded from such a young age. You are already so tired just from having to escape, what the fuck you mean now I gotta worry about bills n shit too??? Fuck that. So please please please know that you are so strong for continuing to live even despite the failures and the trials and the errors and the adjustments and the things you dont know how to do just yet and the things you might be too scared to ask for help in understanding. In this world where people shun you for not just googling shit on your own these days just know that you are not alone in this. There is someone out there just like you who is also struggling too, it's me, hi im that person. We can help each other get through this together.

I am living my life for me, I don't need other people's permission to like myself or to exist, my life is the result of me doing my best with what I've been given, there is no need to be ashamed.

your disorder is not your fault. it does not make you a bad person.
your trauma is not your fault. it does not make you a bad person.
your feelings are not your fault. they do not make you a bad person.
your thoughts are not your fault. they do not make you a bad person.
you are not a bad person for needing help, you are not a bad person for needing to recover, you are not a bad person for feeling emotions out of your control, you are not a bad person for all the violent and angry thoughts inside your head.
you are not a bad person for existing.

with the end of Pride Month, I want take the time to give my full support to all of the gay and bi/etc men who’ve suffered domestic violence from other men, to all of the lesbians and bi/etc women in toxic relationships with their girlfriends, to all of the trans people whose trans partners convinced them they were worthless or unloved, to all of the lgbt+ people in lgbt+ relationships that aren’t wholesome(TM) enough for performative Only STRAIGHT Relationships Are Abusive, Gay Relationships Are Inherently Pure UwU rhetoric, to lgbt+ survivors of trauma caused by one of their own who get ignored, erased, and thrown under the bus by so-called “””pro-lgbt””” discoursers in the name of respectability politics. each and every single one of you matter so much, you deserve to be safe and happy, you deserve to have your voices and stories heard, you are not alone. and I hope with all of my heart and soul that you one day find a partner who truly loves and cherishes you and realizes how much you matter.

It's okay to feel left out when people talk about love. It's okay to feel uncomfortable when people tell you that you are loved. It's okay to feel bitter at how people villainize anger and hate. It's okay to not feel the "good" emotions, or not be that "palatable" kind of traumatized person, or even person in general.
You are not a bad person for not liking love, or liking hate. It does not make you the person in the wrong.

i don't know who needs to hear this, but guilt, self-hatred and shame are not sustainable sources of growth and healing. you can't hate yourself into feeling better, or being better. you can't repeatedly punish yourself for your flawed humanity and expect wholesome results.

To anyone who was suicidal at age 14 or younger, here’s your permission to grieve. Here’s your permission to not joke about it or just flat out ignore it. Here’s your permission to acknowledge that lost child who felt way more pain than any child should ever feel. You’re allowed to cry for that child, whether you healed or are still suffering the same thoughts. Finally allow yourself to grieve for that child filled with undeserved hurt.
