In dream
you looked into my eyes
Ah ! That night !
How precious!
those moments were.
did it ever happen before?
The safest place is a dream
where we can meet ,
there are no boundaries...!

The fact that we were abused or neglected will never change.

The story we tell ourselves about that fact CAN change-- but we need to be real careful to not try to shift it to a story about how what we endured "doesn't matter" or "wasn't that bad."

Healing from childhood trauma requires survivors to hold the conviction we deserved better, that we were "enough." There's no room for self-cruelty, not anymore.

Our old survival patterns will try to seduce us otherwise, but self-compassion & patience are non-negotiable tools for recovery.

My body hurts so bad.
Trauma may manifest as ruminations and flashbacks, but trauma isn’t stuck in your thoughts; its wedged in your body.

Talking & writing help align our language to emotions, but we still have to feel the emotions to heal. Tremors, rage & tears are the Inner Child showing the path of the body.

Overfunctioning to the point of exhaustion is a very effective way to guarantee we won't be able to protect ourselves when we need to.

Trauma Brain's insistence that overfunctioning somehow keeps us "safe" is a lie. It never did keep us safe-- not really.

You are not an "angry person." You are a deeply sensitive & aware person who experienced things worth being angry about, & your nervous & endocrine systems are responding appropriately.

Your anger is a sign that something is RIGHT with you, not that something is wrong or broken.

It is not only a duty to tell the truth, it can be an act of righteous rebellion.
Really wish I had gotten a better shot of this but holding a phone that says “who else was just ‘following orders’?” up to a riot cop is hard as hell

Most people need connection with a caring and patient person to help them have the courage to face the truth of what happened and how it hurt them. A companion in tragedy or difficulty always helps us have courage.

Ignoring our own needs is 100% one of the most destructively selfish things we can do. Over time it practically guarantees we're going to flame out & be unable to support any person or pet we love.

You're not The Exception who can run on empty indefinitely. The bill comes due.
