One day, you're going to be free. Just try to hold on in the meantime.

Shoutout to abuse survivors who stayed kind, because staying kind through abuse is really hard, and shoutout to abuse survivors who couldn't stay kind, because staying kind through abuse is really hard.

Shoutout to those who have been kind and unkind amidst abuse, because human beings are not exclusively one thing and crisis situations do not warrant kindness over self defense. Be complicated. Do good. Give them the bare minimum. Do whatever you can to stay safe. Never stop picking at the lock they hold on your life.

TL,DR; You don't have to be kind to someone who just abused you. Not unless it guarantees temporary safety.
