The first time I tried to run away was when my mom made a "joke" about me being kicked out of the house! No lasting trauma there! I was 9!

I get you with the "She pretended nothing happened" my mom broke my arm. She never apologized. She didn't even drive me to the hospital. I had to get my 70 YEAR OLD NEIGHBOR to drive me there, and then my dad came. I go home and my mom is on the couch. She doesn't even look at me. And she never brought it up.

One of the things i hated the most is that adults told me how stupid i was for running away as a child when i couldve gotten 🍇 or worse, they thought i didnt think of that possibility when deciding to run, like bruh i ran bcause home was bad enough to where i'd risk runing away and if that didnt workout i was just gonna offline myself from the server👁👄👁

The fact you were still a baby and your father would whip you is one of the most diabolical, evil, vile things I have ever heard in my goddamn life. There is never an excuse to hit a child- NONE- but that’s so far that the people who are still traumatized enough to justify the abuse they endured would find that positively monstrous. Hope he’s having fun reaping the karma from that depravity wherever he wound up post-mortem. I’m so goddamn sorry, Jesse

I never understood why people that go to church, if they have their kid’s friend sleep over, go to church with them the next day. Makes more sense to skip that day, or maybe go later when the friend is back at home.

Your trauma is the best trauma. It’s the juiciest not to sound like trauma. Is a good thing, but sometimes you add a little jokes that are funny.

[@PotatoQueen1989]

Your mom sounds like my brother, he forced me to drive him to our grandparents cos it would be easier and i didn't want to kick up a fuss, then he spent the whole hour drive yelling at my dog and snapping at her for barking saying she would put me off, i could tune her out, i was used to driving with her, i ended up having a meltdown, undiagnosed autism, people laughing at me and my brother demanding i let him drive i refused let my now husband drive, my brother cornered me when we got there, not the first time, taking me away from everyone to have a silent word, i ended up leaving him there and he had to get a taxi back and everyone blamed my dog, who also had canine autism and did nothing wrong, both of us were like the family outcasts

You should make your own merch. Like sweaters/hoodies with "Trauma" in pride colors and your KZbinr tag up the sleeve or one that says "Lifes a b*tch named Linda" or "Don't be a Linda". With how much BS she put you through, might as well start monetizing it. It wont undo the trauma but hey, cash can pay for the years of therapy she's caused in the first place.
