having a hometown is such a fucked up concept. i grew up here so i do not want to stay here anymore. i miss it when i am away but once i am back i realise why i wanted to go away as far as possible from it. i am familiar with every corner of this place i did not realise when it slowly changed into something unrecognisable. i would probably like to be buried here but i'd rather die than live here
I live a very balanced life of noticing things nobody else does and not noticing the things that literally everybody notices
they dont tell you this but you carry your upset younger self in you like a parasitic twin

ooh I get it now. this world wasn’t meant for me
otherwise interesting post ruined by the bold insistence that you can never accidentally abuse someone & that all abusive people are self-aware evil masterminds
I don't think my parents are aware that what they did was abuse. in fact I think one of the reasons they abused me was because they lacked the self-awareness, introspection, and education needed to realize what they were doing counted as abuse. if they did have more self awareness &etc, they would have likely stopped. it is not productive to insist they woke up in the mornings with the intent to psychologically torture a kid for no reason, when that is self-evidently not the case or within their motivations.
I'm speaking annecdotally here but I think many cases of abuse are like this. I think when reckoning with the reality of how abuse functions in our society, you must come to terms with the mundanity of it including the fact that abusive people are primed to overlook the harm of their own actions through the shield of mundanity and (lack of) intent.

what doesn’t kill me leaves a pit in my stomach that never goes away
youre supposed to not be like this by my age but whatever
can you tell i missed out on smth fundamental in my formative years 😏
i wont worry about it i say to myself with the always worried disorder
every 5 minutes i go wow i NEED to kill myself and then i ignore it because i have things to do
what doesn’t kill you makes you cry on a bright sunny day
beautiful day to think about what you had and can no longer have
