Not going to lie, best thing about tumblr is when you don’t have a voice you don’t have to reorient your entire content. You just type away and the other person reads your words like they usually do. No voice required from our end ^_^
look you can skip over this, if you like. sorta sad posting, childhood trauma, bullying, abuse survival.
ok so not being able to speak is such a cunt of a thing, its so frustrating.
and i just had this thought, randomly after i tried to speak but couldn't that was 'this happened all the time when i was ten, how the fuck did i cope with it then!!'
when i was 10, as the result of intensive bullying I developed traumatic mutism. I was already riddled with da major event PTSD and the spicy ol C-PTSD so I was very much a ticking time bomb of 'massive reaction waiting to happen'. and it did and no one helped me and after i was removed from the bullies (it took 3/4's of a year for anyone to do anything) i spoke with a lisp and a stutter that then would go onto take 4 years of speech therapy to recover from.
Anyway, that's just backstory and it's one of those things that i don't tend to think about nowadays until I am reminded and I cannot stop remembering.
It's frustrating being unable to remove myself from this triggering state because there literally is nothing to do but stay silent, take painkillers, drink tea with honey and hope my voice returns
traumatic vs. selective mutism
selective mutism (sm) is technically not caused by trauma - there is no evidence that people with sm are any more likely to have trauma than people without sm.
still trauma can be a factor in the development of sm, but it’s a myth that selective mutes are necessarily traumatised.
sm, when trauma is a factor in its development, tends to develop slowly and gradually after the trauma, whereas traumatic mutism can sometimes be sudden and in all situations right after a trauma.
that being said, this depends on the nature of the trauma; trauma that is repeated or across several years can mean mutism as a response is gradual. this might be traumatic or selective.
i think one key difference would be that traumatic mutism is often (complete or partial mutism) in almost all situations; whereas with sm there tends to be one significant situation (person, setting etc) in which the individual is completely fine with speaking.
im not an expert nor am i well versed in traumatic mutism, but they are different things that are often confused

Has anyone ever read "the weight of silence"? I just finished it its a story of a girl who is supposed to have selective mutism, but I think in the beginning it's more like traumatic mutism. I thought it was pretty cool. But there are some triggering things in it like rape, and abuse. So beware of that if you ever want to read it! (If you wanna know more about it you can message me)
