What folks don’t realise is that trauma/abuse survivors can and often forget their trauma (Dissociative amnesia) until many years later when they understand better and are ready to process it. (Which may never happen). Memory loss is a natural defense mechanism humans develop in an attempt to protect themselves from pyschological damage, and mostly regain those memories later on.
someone gay who is joking and has literally no systematic power to make this happen: sorry straight people [some item/subject/thing] is gays only, that means no straights
straight people: I FINALLY KNOW OPPRESSION AND THIS IS THE WORST I’VE EVER FELT THE GAYS WILL PAY FOR THIS
voltron being so popular is like. everyone raving about an amazing restaurant and u go there and they just serve plain thin toast and all the happy smiling customers have brought their own jam
being mentally ill + suicidal at a young age (before 18) is. strange, because you grow up with this idea that one day you’ll finally snap, turn off, be brave enough to kill yourself, so you don’t really plan for the future. adulthood- further life, it isn’t for you, nor do you feel included within the future of it. it isn’t.. it isn’t part of your life plan.
and then before you know it you’re 18 and you’re an adult but you never thought you’d get this far and sure it’s great that you’re still alive you guess but also. you feel so alone + lost in a world you never expected or planned to be a part of.
