did perfectionism ever truly protect you from harm or neglect as a child though. ultimately. Lol

[REALLY NORMAL AND WELL-ADJUSTED VOICE] well you never know maybe it COULD have saved me. if i ever actually achieved perfection. it could have happened then. if i was actually ever enough. Which i was not

#i understand what this post is trying to convey but yes being perfect in the eyes of my guardians did in fact stop them from beating me #which is kinda the point.. of perfectionism as a defense mechanism
