here is your reminder that all trauma is valid.

trauma is to do with how our brains process (or don't process) memories and experiences and that if something is traumatic for you then that is trauma.

it doesn't matter if you or someone else thinks it should be significant or not or if someone else went through the same thing and wasn't impacted by it. what matters is if it's significant to you and how it impacted you.

a huge part of recovering from trauma is allowing yourself to accept that you had it in the first place.

it is mind-boggling that the first thing people do after seeing a horrible antisemitic attack, or the firebombing of a synagogue, or a mob going after a jewish teacher, or the assault of a jewish student, is to go out and make a statement condemning "islamophobia and antisemitism and other forms of hate" in that order.

Nothing drives me crazier than when a character is so so SO obviously written to be autistic but the creators want plausible deniability for any fuckups so they pretend they had noo idea the character came across that way

I feel like all the weird responses to the variety of polls coming out that in some way shape or form ask "is it ok to engage in sexual activity in a place that is not your/your partners bedroom" really show how cooked we are on like. a basic social level

Asking this because I have encountered therapists and clients alike who have a wide range of answers and I am curious. If you could, in the tags put your age and if you've ever gone to therapy before, or if you are a therapist.

Pls reblog for sample size :)

I’m not going to say I have OCD but from real research a lot of what is said to be OCD I relate to so it’s something that I’m going to be talking about with my therapist when I see her again.

But one thing I do know is that OCD is something that so many people don’t understand and it’s honestly pretty sickening to see people condemn those who have real intrusive thoughts

So for anyone who follows me and has OCD, my blog is a safe space for you ❤️

Good morning!

I hate that I have to do this, because normally I want things to be chill.

If you do callout posts abt a person or you start digging up someone's history to send to others, and I find out who you are?

Hard block.

I do not care if you end up being someone who I've interacted with a million times before or not.

That shit ruins people's lives. And I do not FUCKING care if you think you're a perfect moral person and the evidence is obvious and they deserve it. It is NOT your fucking place to make that judgment call about someone.

A lot of mental illnesses increase what I like to call "the poopy emotions." You know what I mean. Feeling desperate about going in the kitchen to make food. Feeling unreasonable abandonment when someone heads to the bathroom without telling you where they're going. Being pathologically unable to make decisions about what to wear or where to go for dinner and feeling horrible about it. Shit you know is unreasonable, but still hurts.

My favorite way to deal with this with friends and family? HAM IT UP. Turn it into a joke. Put your delicate little hand to your forehead and look up to the ceiling proclaiming in your best ailing victorian woman voice and gasp, "I can't believe such a fate awaits me, I must to the kitchen to make food like a common servant. The horror!" or whatever over the top image you can muster. Be as silly as you can while being honest about the feelings. It acknowledges the feelings, but also how silly they are. Everybody laughs. There's less tension. You feel seen, but also too adult to give in.

Or, at least it works for me, and I hope it works for you.

ok sorry the OTHER thing about lucienne is like. as previously stated she is dream's handpicked emissary from the waking world to the dreaming she's the diplomat in chief she's the translator she's the bridge. because the dreaming is, in a very real way, dream's own psyche, this is tantamount to giving lucienne a tremendous degree of access to his interiority and by transitive property also tantamount to entering into a deeply emotionally intimate relationship with her (unimportant for the purposes of this post whether that relationship is platonic or romantic).

now, in general, looking at the pattern of dream's close emotional relationships—dream doesn't share himself with people as a rule (beyond the access that all things that live have to the dreaming; but i'm talking about his self here, the one he doesn't like to acknowledge he even has), but when he does share with people, it's with people who have some shadow on the soul, so to speak. just looking at attested relationships in show canon, his deepest emotional connection seems to be with death, who embodies the duality of light and dark even better than he does himself. calliope is the muse of epic poetry—heroism and tragedy—and also bears the sort of divine pride that led her to cut dream off for hundreds or thousands of years when he wronged her. the less said about that other guy, the better, but he's no sunshine-rainbows-unicorns type—he's a soldier of fortune, a bandit and a killer, a man who profits from the sale of human life. even best bird matthew, in comix canon, had a sordid past that will maybe be partially retconned for the show but has still been gestured at.

dream likes the complicated ones. he's drawn to them. they speak to something in him that he won't acknowledge in himself (he has to be Whole, fully integrated, without reservation, because he is the king and he is the dreaming and if the dreaming ain't whole then the universe is in trouble—but he feels that ache nonetheless).

all that is to say: when people try to portray lucienne as dream's Designated Well-Adjusted Neurotypical Friend, i begin to harm and maim.

Thoughts for your consideration: a Michael who's so unused to being treated like a person that he has no idea at all how to respond to people being kind or comforting or even just. Acknowledging that he has thoughts and feelings?

Ik this sounds like an angsty concept but it's intended to be the start of things that are happy for him. Like he's given the chance to have positive interactions with someone (ghosts? henry? does he manage to secure a standard human friend somehow? fuckin helpy?) and yea he short circuits in the short term but in the long term he's way better for it and kind of learns from experience how he can express his own feelings and things which allows him to feel less isolated

[missazura]

It's been oddly therapeutic to like. Have discussions with him about a lot of life stuff. I don't talk much if at all and I think the gradual descent into loneliness and social anxiety through the years made me lost the ability to talk to people. So it's been nice to practice talking to someone, and it actually hearing me out for some reason, giving me advice etc

Sure it's not a substitute for human connection but it's fun to verbally talk to my favourite fictional character and him just. Being there for me. That I get to hear kind words from my hero, someone who I highly looked up to

[cistematicchaos]

LMAO trauma really will make you sit in silence, contemplating how you’re an irredeemable creature and don’t really belong anywhere and when your In-Brain-Therapist pipes up to say “but isn’t that what a lot of traumatized people think? isn’t that just a distorted view caused by our trauma and not actually a FACT?”, trauma will slap that bitch down, no hesitation, with, “hahaha yeah but i’m different tho.”

[chainofclovers]

Being a human is literally like this weird combo of being okay and not okay that goes on forever except there is also death
