I’m finally starting to push myself to get some serious therapy and I have some questions for anyone feeling the same way. Are you angry, like absolutely furious that what you faced was in fact NOT normal? Does anyone else have trouble speaking to literally anyone bc it feels like they are annoyed just by your presence but really it’s all in your mind? When you walk in a room and see someone do you say “sorry” too? All the hobbies or activities you could have indulged in? Concerts, performances, theatre? So much abuse, neglect, all you could do was dissociate to survive. All the weird and dirty kinks, the pit in your stomach that hasn’t left since you were just a little child already riddled with disgust for your own being. I am just beginning my journey but I feel like I’ve missed so much life and don’t know where to start.

Edit : This is the first time I’ve ever spoke out into the “ void “ and to see everyone’s support, comment’s ; reading all of your individual experiences, I’ve never felt so understood. I have such overwhelming empathy for every single one of you. I hope one day for all of us out there we can find peace. Non of what we had to endure, what we did to survive is not our faults. We are stronger than the weak people who did this to us. You are loved and you are beautiful. Thank you.
