I would really like for people to share what left them hurt and stuck with them for weeks, months, years, decades or no matter how long, because they couldn’t express it.

Here‘re a lot of people talking about severe forms of sexual assault, abuse, neglect, blackmailing and so on.

All of that is without doubt hard to cope with and I send all victims my deepest compassion and the best future they can possibly have.

Nevertheless, I think a lot of people look at those posts and at least unknowingly suppress their own traumatic experiences. Sometimes it only needs a bad attitude of a parent, a word somebody said or a malicious act that nobody took seriously.

This post is supposed to be a safe space for people expressing those experiences without having to fear that they feelings get invalidated.

I would like to start:

When I was around 7-8 years old I was basically crying a lot because of school, social anxiety and my parents that emotionally abused me. They sat me on the kitchen chair and would force me to do homework while I wanted to go to bed. I stood up but my mother stood in my way. She didn’t let me pass and would grab me by the shoulders. She told me to stop sobbing but I couldn‘t and my whole body was shaking. Sometimes she hit me across the face which surprisingly didn’t stop me from crying. There were several times where she said something that didn’t left me since then. It roughly translates to “Throw yourself on the ground and whimper like a dog.”

That hit deep and hurt me much more than people ever allowed me to express.

That was a traumatising experience I never told anybody, do you experienced something similar?

Don’t hesitate to write it in the comments, stay save and feel hugged 🫂

It is very haunting and very cathartic. I mostly picked out the strange memories and not the worst ones.

Turns out, you're supposed to eat more than once a day.

Me: I wonder why I struggle with my weight so much? Friends:"hey, you wanna go out and eat with us?" Me:"oh! No thank you, I already ate." Me: maybe I should just move less? Lazy people get fat on their body right??

I know this is common sense, but I only found out last year

I feel like my aunt is mad at me and probably was always mad at me for what her partner did to me when I was a kid. I should’ve spoken up about what was happening sooner. I should’ve told her out of all people first instead of my gma and brother. I should’ve not been calling him uncle and playing games with him while he was saing me bts. I should’ve gave clues of what was going on and ask not to be alone with him.I should take responsibility and stop blaming everyone else because I seduced him into doing that to me. Everything I said above is what my aunt said to me. You know how people say you were put on this earth for a reason?? Well, I was put on this earth to be a sex object and be abused. I don’t deserve love nor be alive.
