I choose trauma recovery because if I have to engage w/ my past, it's gonna be on my terms, at my pace, for my reasons-- not the intrusive, chaotic sh*t show of trauma responses that ruined my life & relationships for years. To be in control, I had to surrender.

There is nothing quite like feeling out of control, emotionally or behaviorally, to make trauma survivors feel like we're f*cked up beyond repair. It's something almost EVERY survivor feels at some point in recovery. But: that feeling is a SYMPTOM of trauma-- NOT reality.

@emilykmay I was 12 the first time I remember it happening.

When I was in 8th grade, my best friend moved to an adjacent neighborhood. It was about a 10 minute walk from my house. You had to cross one busy road. From ages 13-15, every single time I would walk, men would honk their horns and yell at me out the window. /1

Putting the belt on someone who condones racism, transphobia and homophobia is a major setback for the women's division. Fuck Saraya and her raggedy ass boyfriend. Do better, AEW.

I don't care how many people give you sh*t for not escaping an exploitative situation before you did-- there are LEGIONS of people out there who don't get how coercive control works. But if YOU know, you know. Don't let "them" get in your head. This is YOUR recovery.

🦊

We trauma survivors tend to have some, ah, strong feelings about control. One of the HARDEST things for us is often feeling NOT in control of ourselves-- our body, our reactions, how we're perceived or understood by others. Good thing that sh*t never happens...er, right?
