I just want to be physically cared for it’d be such a novel experience for me and I’d only cry for the first half hour of someone nicely tucking me in to bed and dabbing at my forehead with a nice cold washcloth or whatever the fuck happens when someone is looked after in that capacity

#you can imagine how surly I am toward my mother who made a career out of looking after preschool age children #and then she gave me ptsd #I’m sure many of my obvious faults are also why I’ve ended up with ptsd #but (as silly as it sounds) I would think someone with actual credentials in early childhood development #wouldn’t give her own daughter ptsd #it still happened #I would be more forgiving if my parents had no skill or prior knowledge re: parenting #this is something else though. she made a career out of this but chose not to apply her skills to me #she was just mean to me #personal #rant in tags
