Reminder that abusers can be abusive by accident.

Reminder that abusers can genuinely, wholeheartedly believe that they are doing you a favor by abusing you.

Reminder that some abusers never apologize because they genuinely, wholeheartedly believe their abuse was for the better.

You’re allowed to know and acknowledge this and still be upset!

Explanation is not an excuse.

Some people abuse purely to cause a victim pain.

Others abuse for more complicated reasons.

But that doesn’t negate the fact that they abused you.

Even if there were aggravating circumstances, you are still allowed to still be mad at your abuser. You were not in control of their circumstances in their life and it was unfair you had to suffer the consequences.

Abuse is abuse, no matter the circumstances.

IFS is crazy bc you will have a guy in your head screaming at you and sending you gore images. and so youll be like Okay man so what's going on can you tell me what you want. and they'll be like Well I really want to hold hands with someone on the beach. And upon realizing this you will cry harder than you have ever cried in your life

you don’t realize how important lunch is until you’re wandering around thinking about how unloveable and untalented and uniquely cursed you are and then it’s 4pm and you finally eat lunch and you go Oh. oh right.

[podcastwizard]

lot of people commenting on this post like "who eats lunch at 4pm that's a terrible time to eat lunch" yes. that is the point. 4pm lunch is inadvisable. 4pm lunch is not the ideal. 4pm lunch makes the mind demons real.
