This post is for everyone with a form of trauma that seems so outlandish that nobody around them believes it really happened
To every victim of kidnapping
To every victim of torture
To every victim of robbery, arson, and home invasion
To every victim of ritualistic abuse
To every victim of a crime or assault that seemingly happened for “no reason”
To every victim of repeated abuse who feels the more they bring it up the more people think they’re talking about it for attention
To everyone who was abused by someone in a posion of power, like a police officer or a teacher
To everyone whose abuser was younger than them
To everyone whose abuser is famous or otherwise adored within their community
To everyone whose abuser was female
To everyone who was a victim of child on child assault
To everyone who never had enough evidence to bring it to court
To everyone who lives in a state where the system is tilted in the favor of the abuser to the point where bringing it to the police did nothing
To everyone so outwardly high-functioning that nobody believes them when they talk about trauma
To everyone who has a dissociative disorder because of what happened to them who struggles to hide it in polite company because nobody would believe them if they began to explain it
To everyone, everyone who feels like they can’t bring it up on tumblr out of fear that nobody would believe you and everyone would think you’re just lying for attention.
Your trauma is real. It is just as real as anyone else’s. We believe you.
