it’s unfair how i have the responsibility to heal myself when i didn’t cause my wound in the first place
Maybe she’s born with it, maybe it’s her dads fault.

I WAS A SCARED DOG
I talk to many people who say things like "oh I have trauma but I don't have PTSD", but then when I talk to them a little more I realize that they most likely do, they just can't recognize it as such due to how lacking PTSD awareness is, even beyond the whole "it's not just a veteran's disorder" thing.
The main reason they think they don't have PTSD usually has to do with flashbacks and nightmares, either they have one but not the other or have neither. But here's the thing, those are only two symptoms out of the 23-odd recognized symptoms. Flashbacks and nightmares are two of the five symptoms under Criterion B (Intrusion), which you only need one of for a diagnosis. The other three symptoms are unwanted upsetting memories, emotional distress after being reminded of trauma and physical reactivity after being reminded of trauma (i.e. shaking, sweating, heart racing, feeling sick, nauseous or faint, etc). Therefore you can have both flashbacks and nightmares, one but not the other, or neither and still have PTSD.
In fact, a lot of the reasons people give me for why they don't think they have PTSD are literally a part of the diagnostic criteria.
"Oh, I can barely remember most parts of my trauma anyway." Criterion D (Negative Alterations in Cognition and Mood) includes inability to recall key features of the trauma.
"Oh but I don't get upset about my trauma that often because I avoid thinking of it or being around things that remind me of it most of the time." Criterion C (Avoidance) includes avoiding trauma-related thoughts or feelings and avoiding trauma-related external reminders, and you literally cannot get diagnosed if you don't have at least one of those two symptoms.
"Oh I just have trouble getting to sleep or staying asleep, but I don't have nightmares." Criterion E (Alterations in Arousal and Reactivity) includes difficulting sleeping outside of nightmares.
"But I didn't have many/any trauma symptoms until a long time after the trauma happened." There's literally an entire specification for that.
Really it just shows how despite being one of the most well-known mental illnesses, people really don't know much about PTSD. If you have trauma, I ask you to at least look at the criteria before you decide you don't have PTSD. Hell, even if you don't have trauma, look at the criteria anyway because there are so many symptoms in there that just are not talked about.
PTSD awareness is not just about flashbacks and nightmares.
You ruined my life. You ruined my self esteem, my hope, my sense of self...
You ruined everything and you're not even sorry!!
Say you're sorry! Apologize and make things right! Tell me that you'll do better and MEAN IT!!
I can't believe it. This one actually claims to like me for more than my ass and tits. He says he likes my personality and he says that I make him laugh.
It's probably all just another front from another stupid, horny boy, but just once I'd like to believe it's true.
I just can't let him find out what a dirty whore I actually am.
I just wanna get drunk and forget about all my problems for a night.
I wanna forget my dead mom.
I wanna forget my mental illness.
I wanna forget that I have school in the morning.
I wanna forget.
Never use the word “crazy” to describe someone with serious mental health issues.
It really isn’t okay and is pretty much a slur.
Its a real bad look on you.
It makes you an asshole.
It hurts real communities of people trying to recover.
Don’t use the word crazy for real mental health issues.
hey btw if ur transphobic don’t interact with my blog. we support trans people here
everyone putting in the work in therapy even if you feel uncomfortable, weak, embarrassed... proud of you. so proud.

I miss feeling innocent.
I miss being a child and playing with my stuffed animals
Instead of clutching them like precious jewels
As I watch my blood flow down the drain
I can never forget
He never laid a hand on me
But I can still feel
Everything he wanted to do
I can't remember
I'll never remember
His name?
Gone
His location?
Gone
All I remember were his eyes and his horrific smile.
All teeth and malice
Unlike my treasured plushies,
There was nothing soft about him.
Everything was edges, sharp ones.
Edges that cut to my very bones and caused me to bleed all over the bathtub.
While watching my blood go down the drain,
I wish he had just let me bleed to death...
