intro post ⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚

Hello. I’m new to tumblr so idk how to do this right and will take advice on what to include.

I just love psychology and analysing people. I also love introspection and human connection. I love learning in general so know a little bit about a lot.

About me:

Favourite tropes (not exhaustive!): rescue whump, recovery whump, sickfics, fever, royal whump

Just not for me: pet whump

[whumpologyy]

the crazy thing about trauma is that sometimes it doesn’t hit for months after the event. Maybe because it’s being suppressed, maybe the body is still in fight or flight mode, maybe it’s dormant until another stressor awakens it.

Now imagine a whumpee who thinks they’ve gotten through their trauma emotionally unscathed, for the most part, when all of a sudden months later it hits them like a train.

lesser known PTSD things in whump

note; these are my personal experiences. i am clinically diagnosed with complex post traumatic stress disorder and also study psychology, and PTSD in general shows up very differently in all people. please be mindful of this information. --- anywho! many a times i see PTSD in whump and in general being represented as flashbacks, nightmares, avoidant behaviour, and so on which isn't wrong or exaggerated, just coming on here with some more symptoms or issues i don't see often, mainly physical manifestations. feel free to give your whumpees an even harder time <3 1. Trauma literally rewires the brain and its no joke. The amygdala is in overdrive constantly. Whumpee's always on edge. The hippocampus reduces in size, and boom, eventually you're losing your mind and your memories of what happened. Now whumpee has little to make sense of why they are the way they are, and whatever they recall is so blurred it's driving them insane. 2. Getting triggered by a smell, sound, even a sensation on the body, like the wind on the skin 'rubbing off' the wrong way and Whumpee's suddenly spiraling. What's worse is the moment itself is so distressing they disassociate before they can help it. It takes hours to come back to their own body and realize that they can't remember anything except feeling lost and terrified that they can't even calm down. And they don't even know or remember why. 3. Following up on the previous prompt, outsiders will have a hard time telling if Whumpee is upset, sleep-deprived or tired (could be!) or simply out of it. Eyes glazed over, expression slack. Maybe their eyebrows are furrowed slightly. They stare into the distance and only hum back responses or a few syllables. Later into the day, somebody asks them what they're angry about. Whumpee stops, and thinks. What are they even upset about? They don't know. 4. Just fucked up hormones in general :/ Effective for female whumpees, intense stress levels interfere with hormone production and can infact halt your menstrual cycle. I struggled with this & when my cycle actually resumed the cramps were like 10x worse than what they were before lol. Additionally, some studies also report that PTSD symptoms worsen during the menstrual phases. Not fun. 5. The immune system of a Victorian child. Falling sick way too often. Headaches that don't go away. Digestive issues that give a Whumpee stomach cramps every time they even try to eat (this varies a lot). AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES OF ANY SORT!! Alot more things that can wrong. LOTS of potential for non-whumper whump. --- all from me for now. based on some unfortunate experiences i've had in the past year :'). hope this helps someone or so

i am very weak for the “ruthless person who develops one (1) ounce of ethics because the person they are obsessed with wouldn’t approve of murder” thing.

"Hey, hey, it's just me. You're okay."

This is truly an unbeatable comfort line for me. Because wdym just knowing their friend is there is enough to comfort the Character and let them know they're safe. Wdym the trust between them is so profound and deep that all they need to hear is their name

I'm starting to feel like they've put a mask on my face that I'm not sure belongs to me. I have been told I'm tireless. Not for nothing, you're the one who can move mountains. Sometimes I feel something is consuming me. The energy inside me is untamed. Untameable. As if the entire universe was pulling me from infinite directions. This effort devours me.

[callithumpwhump]

obsessed with guarded characters (reluctantly) falling sleep around another character(s), showing how much they trust them to put themselves in a position of absolute vulnerability, unwavering faith that they'll be protected and guarded while they recharge, the submission of being alert unfamiliar and strange in their chest, not used to being safe or away from danger enough to get proper rest, looking years younger when they fall asleep, the other characters fiercely always nearby and keeping the quiet around for them just a little while longer

Hi

[fyodior]

a talking point i often see when defending the consumption of dark content is that it’s a coping mechanism for those with trauma which is very valid and true but i also want to make this abundantly clear: you can like dark content for no reason. you can enjoy fucked up shit in fiction because it’s enjoyable and entertaining. trauma is not required as a ticket for entry. enjoy your dark content bc it’s fun and sexy and don’t let anyone take that away from you

[painwithoutplot]

now give your whumpee whose whumper insists on them being quiet and unobtrusive at all times a persistent cough

[allthewhumpygoodness]

I will NEVER be over the gentle little "shh, you're okay" + a hair stroke from one character to another who's feverishly and fearfully mumbling in their sleep

[paragon-of-anxiety]

malini is such an inspiring woman. she spends all her time scheming while quite literally out of her mind

i want to experience this kind of girlhood one day…

how does one find this kind of love and support and friendship?

[justbreakonme]

Whumpee who doesn’t know who they are. Not in an amnesia sense or anything, but a “I don’t know what my favorite color is” kind of way.

Likes and dislikes, a personality of any kind wasn’t conducive to the life they had lived up until now, and it felt like they were starting from scratch.

Every decision takes seemingly forever as they searched through fragments of what little they knew about themselves. Did they want the blue toothbrush, or the green one? Did they prefer a hoodie or a sweater? Did they actually not care, or did they just not know?
