One of the weirdest things about finding out you're traumatized/mentally ill/neurodivergent as an adult is looking back at all the very obvious signs in your childhood and realizing none of the adults responsible for you were paying attention
#it really is a mindfuck#like all of yall were really asleep at the wheel here#me: exhibiting very obvious symptoms of neurodivergence and mental and physical illnesses#ever parent teacher coach and other authority figure i interacted with: shes just Like That.#fun fact i when i was in elementary school starting in 2nd grade id have to walk to the front of the classroom and read a section of the#board at a time and then go back to my desk and copy it from memory because I couldn't see well enough from my seat and not a single#teacher said or did anything about it until i was in fifth grade. guess who needed glasses.#like they didn't even ask they just let that happen until my fifth grade teacher was like. what are you doing. and i told her i couldn't#read the writing from two rows back and she told me to tell my mom i needed glasses#anyways ms. [redacted] you're the only valid mfer in this place#not even gonna get into the number of coaches who called me lazy or out of shape in middle/high school (even though i was playing multiple#sports a year) when i told them i couldn't breathe after running for only a minute or two. guess who has sports asthma.#maybe this is just being the middle child but like of you're not going to pay attention to me can u at least not immediately call me a liar#when i say something's wrong maybe#those aren't even mental/neurological those are very obvious and easily demonstrated physical issues and you STILL didn't say anything#not even gonna get into all the very obvious signs of mental illness and neurodivergence

tw// kinda icky injuries
So I've gotten like, 3 scars in my life
the first one was from 2nd grade gym class, I ran into this kid while we were doing that weird "Run as long as the music is playing" thing you do in elementary school gym class, and his tooth managed to pierce straight through my cheek, I didn't even notice it was like weirdly numb. The other kid had a bad nose bleed. I kept insisting I didn't need to go to the nurse but of course they made me go. That scar's faded by now. Oh also it was the first time I had an allergic reaction to bandaid adhesive!
the second one is from when I went on a family friends boat, they said we could go swimming but we'd have to be careful getting in the water, more specifically to jump away from the boat when we went in the water, but I was too scared to jump in so I tried to ease myself in. I kicked the propeller on accident. Still got a scar on my ankle, it's real light though
The third scar I got was in 2019, just two weeks before the start of school so late august. I made a bowl of rice for myself because it was my safety food at the time, but I always liked my rice a bit wet. I was not at all thorough in draining it. I made the mistake of putting the bowl next to me when I sat down and it tipped and I got boiling water all over my upper leg. I told my dad but he just said "what am I supposed to do about it?" so I stood in the shower for like 5 hours till my mom got home from work and took me to the doctor. it was second degree and I couldn't swim at band camp. Fun fact my dad works in food service so he SHOULD know what to do for burns he just never takes them seriously because toxic masculinity and what not
ok sorry for the scar info dump I just love talking about my scars I think they're all funny-
