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.

"I rot because of you, brother" Raphael and aftermath of Lucifer's sin

There was a time the Healingspur only knew life, before so much of them became feared and hated by human souls. They are perhaps more disturbed by their transformation than they're able to acknowledge; at least until it seems their family dares to offer the Serpent forgiveness for this.

They are Dr Raphael, the Third Born and Healingspur of God, Archangel of Life, and Death, curegiver and plaguemaker, cause of growth and rot, of health and blight, because of him.

They are God's Spur, Keeper of Balance.

And Lucifer owes them an eye.

Lucifer never meant for this, never meant for death and strife, to do this to his little brother.

Raphael would have cared, once. A long time ago, before nature lost the ability to. Before he took it from them.

They are forgetting what it was like to be Life without struggle. Whoever they once were is nearing their final death, the worms have found their orifices and the decay has set is.

They're here to take vengeance for them, the kindhearted healer that no one will know to mourn.

They're having after fight tea and feelings talk. Anyways PSA admitting negative feelings is important, Luci didn't even know they were mad about this until they coming at him with a scythe. You can't anyways be the rock.

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.

genuine questions from someone who is grieving a relationship for the first time: how do you not lose yourself in this? how do you keep trusting in the positive in humans? how do you let go of not just the person, but the future and the promises that came along with them?

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

it was once observed by a dear friend that the hours in which i am most alert are like 7pm to 2am which probably explains a lot about how my posts get worse throughout the evening. but also sometimes i look at today where i was just sort of gnawing the couch all day until about 5pm when i wrote an entire fic in two hours and then another entire post about kaapo which to be clear took another two hours bc i had to chase links and explain my passions in a kind way and this was in addition to a church meeting. i would excel as the person who lights and then extinguishes lamps in the night

Consulted with a new therapist as our old one is quitting.

I sincerely don't want to go through this again. This will be my 5th therapist since moving to MN.

I'm tired of the endless cycle of

"6-12 months of info gathering and stabilizing" > "1-3 months of trauma processing" > "Have a massive reaction in session and regress" > "Suicidal ideation and negative symptoms flair up" > "Therapist gets scared to continue because they don't want to trigger ideation" > "Frustration brews between me and therapist" > "One of us quits on the other" > "Find a new therapist and start again"

Honestly? I'm tired. She volunteered that we could just deal with present issues of *checks notes* "Transgender people being politically and physically targeted by bigots during an endless pandemic" but why I'm in therapy is so that I stop living my life like I'm about to experience homelessness again or lose all my relationships in a heartbeat.

I barely go outside, I'm scared of people and have withdrawn so much of my life into a hard little shell that honestly it can hardly be called a life at all.

As much progress as we've made with our trauma triggers and our DID, we're WAY worse socially than we were when we were a closeted husk of a being pretending to be a guy. Blame the pandemic and the politics if you like but we're barely functioning and a decade plus of therapy has just made us hate ourselves for it less than we would otherwise.

It's so tempting to quit and pocket the money for the upcoming storms...

But to her credit when we mentioned our worries that DID in treatment looks fake because we have our symptoms managed she volunteered "You mean the McLean Hospital stuff", referring to a lecture given by the hospital a couple years ago about the "trend" of DID clients and how to differentiate real from "fake". That and assuring that she does not lead with an fusion model (she used the word "integration") helps me give a base level of trust.

But fuck I'm tired of being in stabilization forever.

i looove my therapist

[joleneghoul]

i feel like the reactions i get out of people when i mention i was unhoused/displaced as a teenager is exactly why WHEN i was unhoused i never spoke about it to any of my friends or online.

this is true of many things, but i feel like the way the public is uncomfortable with unhoused people speaking of their experiences (yet doing nothing to help them) is such a major roadblock in progressive spaces.

i am a person who believes that a "good therapist" can be a meaningful part of someone's efforts toward wellbeing, but it's occurring to me that i feel like a lot of people simply don't know what to look for in a therapist, and don't feel comfortable talking about their relationship to their therapist.

i feel like the way that therapy is commonly treated as a "quarantine" of emotionality means that a lot of people are hesitant to reflect on and discuss interactions with their therapist to trusted outside parties. (of course, sometimes we seek therapy because we have no trusted outside parties). and there is a societal assumption that therapeutic authority is well-earned, which doesn't necessarily align with reality.

but i guess i'm wondering if it wouldn't be helpful to just... talk a lot more, blab about your experiences with your therapist. complain more about uncomfortable interactions and figure out if it's something you can set a boundary over or if it's a dealbreaker. for people who actually feel helped by their therapists to explain what's so good about them.

like compared to the friends and mentors that comprise our support networks, there are so few social consequences for discussing our emotional responses To therapy, because they're not a person woven into the fabric of your social sphere. they're removed from it, intentionally. so i feel like we should really take advantage of that to loudly talk about What theyre telling us and How it makes us feel.

(my partner says one of the things about psychoanalysis that they prefer over conventional therapy is that it's understood that you might feel various ways about your analyst, and you aren't expected to have this... neutral-pleasant relationship. it's understood as an emotionally involved relationship with two parties who have their own biases. without analysis experience myself i can't speak to how that shows up in practice, but i think it's a compelling angle)

i guess i feel like a lot of the everyday posts about therapy are either quite personal and limited in scope, or really general trends, or zoomed-out posts on therapy as a theory and practice. perhaps i sense a gap in personal anecdotes that center emotional experience while providing some guidance in ways to move forward. maybe im just not following the right people but i guess i think it's a societal trend that could be changed

bro when u are trying so hard to curate ur life experience so u don't go insane but the insanity comes from within

[butchshevik]

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
