My brain at six years old when something traumatic happened

[corkycare]

<A video is attached. The video has a streak running across it, suggesting that the camera filming may have a crack in the lens. Corky is being filmed from behind as she walks down the hallway of Team Phobia HQ. A large furret runs along at her side, and she is holding on her hip a baby torchic, which chirps happily from time to time. She pushes open a door, and over her shoulder we see what appears to be a breakroom.

The room is pleasantly decorated, with plenty of plants, cushions, and mood lighting to make the space feel cozy and welcoming. We cannot see Corky's face, but she pauses in the doorway. The hand that is not holding the torchic balls into a tight fist, then flexes open again. This repeats a few times, as if Corky is squeezing some imaginary stress ball. She then turns, closing the door to the breakroom and leaving. We get the briefest glimpse of a deep scowl on her face as she turns.

End ID.>

POP PSYCH CAN EAT MY FINGERS

A lot of pop psychology gets thrown around and since I already have a headache, here's preventing you lot from making it worse.

Love-bombing: A manipulation tactic of increasing affection and grand gestures before or after doing something abusive, specifically to weasel one's way out of consequences.

What it is not: A streak of affection and generosity towards friends/loved ones.

Trauma-bonding: Knowingly traumatizing someone to take advantage of their vulnerable state, to then act like the "hero" or the one who cheers them up.

What it is not: Bonding over similar traumas.

Gaslighting: *Knowingly* convincing someone they cannot trust their own perception of a situation in pursuit of one's own narrative.

What it is not: Misaligned perception of events.

Narcissist: Someone afflicted with Narcissistic Personality Disorder, a traumagenic cluster B disorder, that struggles with self-obsession, paranoia, craving validity from the public, delusions of grandeur, and social disconnection.

It is not: Your rubbish ex that cheated on you.

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

Saying "get out of my head" when another alter cofronts will continue being the funniest shit ever to happen to DID.

her: did you just try asking me out with a Hamilton joke?

me: did it work?

me: c'mon, you can't say no to this

her: oh my god.

Lmao

The three mental illnesses are

Terminal child syndrome lol sorry you'll be infantilized forever and never get any basic respect we have the right to not treat you like an adult and make life worse for you in the name of helping, or shun you completely :)

Just stop doing that you useless cunt go the fuck outside and stop being a burden to society get the fuck up and stop having this illness. Have this list of pop psychology bullshit and get your shit together. We can still romanticize your struggle if you're hot and manage it just well enough to not be a useless cunt

Irredeemable piece of shit disorder uh sorry but your vibe is off and you should go to jail for it I fucking hate you and you deserve nothing you vile piece of human garbage you need to be avoided at all costs everyone should cut you off immediately no one should have to put up with you you manipulative asshole

Why do people think it's tragic when you use mobility aids? Can't you see that this is giving me freedom, that it's giving me my life back, that without it, I wouldn't be present? Let alone functional???

how can't you see this

it's giving me my life back.

Even when it's short term mobility aids like crutches for a broken bone, it's still giving freedom... it's allowing the bone to heal and for you to live as usual...

let alone people with chronic pain, paralysis, and long term injuries!

without them, I wouldn't be here!

how can't you see that is a good thing!?!? 😭😭

that's fuckin awesome

I wasn’t crazy about this piece so I wasn’t intending on publicly posting it again, but it keeps getting stolen every five minutes so I figured I’d put it here so people at least know who to attribute the original thing to lmao

hey.. hey..

yeah, you <3

how are you doing?

you know, despite what some want you to believe, you're not a bad person if you don't interact with every post you see, or if you don't reply to DMs instantly.

you're not a bad person if you scroll past political posts because they're too much, or if you skip over discourse or graphic imagery

you're not doing anything wrong if you filter out certain tags because they're too much..

you're not a bad person for keeping yourself safe online

it may suck right now but i believe in you :) if you can, go have a drink of water, stretch, eat something... do something for yourself..

remember to take your meds, stay hydrated, warm, and if you need mobility aids, go forth and slay my friend! you look seriously cool with them

you've got this. promise. <3

my fav live action movie of all time, honestly

You were real. That’s what made you so good to watch. THE TRUMAN SHOW (1998) dir. Peter Weir
