trauma

Amir Locke was a Black man living in Minneapolis unfairly killed by the police 2/2/22. As you might guess, he was essentially killed for being Black. 

I can’t stand this anymore.

I am desperate to make this stop. I can’t take this any longer. I already feel scared when I go outside and the police scrutinize my Black body.

do you not care deeply about them and understand that they are complex human beings who experience a range of emotions?

your friend being vulnerable with you is not trauma dumping. you don’t have to be a grief counselor to be there for your friend while they cry about a loved one dying. or just a rough time they’re having.

i mean, do you only have deep discussions with a therapist and not friends or family? if so, that’s weird tbfh and not utilizing therapy properly.
