trauma baby

you are just cranky because i took something imperceptible from you and you cannot recall it in its absence but you feel the edges of it anyway

girl with ptsd voice: hey, so something really bad is gonna happen, right? you guys are picking up on that too, yeah? The other shoe is about to drop, I just know it.

You should be able to say “don’t touch me” to anyone ever in any context and not have it be considered in the realm of surprising or insulting imho if we ever needed to normalize something it’s this

An increasingly hostile society where coping is a struggle for nearly everyone will make every kind of accommodation needed in school or at work be directly dependent on receiving certain medical diagnoses and then go on to publish hundreds of fear mongering articles about how "everyone wants to be diagnosed with something these days"

funny thing about anxiety is sometimes it kind of breaks your sense of danger. like i am known for repeatedly putting myself in situations that make my friends go "bro you couldve died. werent you scared?" and the answer is 👍 yjeah. i did it scared. i do everything scared. i didnt know that was the actual important kind of scary because i usually have to ignore my fears to function in society. it will happen again. watch out.

not only is picking your skin fun as fuck but it also gives you cool new textures and #open wounds you can pick at forever!

i do feel somewhat ruined forever. but it’s okay we stay silly
