To all of us who need to hear it today:

“they’re family” doesn’t mean it isn’t abuse.

“they never hit me” doesn’t mean it isn’t abuse.

You don’t have to like someone who violates your boundaries.

Being nice to you on occasion doesn’t negate their abuse.

Family shouldn’t criticize everything you do, bully you, or put you down and laugh.

Family shouldn’t take your things, or break them to hurt, upset or control you.

Family shouldn’t try to control you.

You don’t deserve to be yelled or screamed at.

You don’t deserve to be put down or insulted.

You don’t deserve to starve.

You don’t deserve to be hurt or punished.

You deserve love and good things in your life.

Love and good things are coming. You can make it.

“motherhood and pregnancy aren’t comparable to drawn pedophilia or rape or incest, though, are they?

@eerie-entityy do you realize that what you have just said is that you think that some people’s trauma and triggers are not as important as other people’s?

Do you realize that you have just causally dismissed the trauma that resulted from my abuse?

Do you realize that you are saying some people’s triggers and trauma don’t matter to you as much as others?

Does it register to you that that is what you’re saying?

Does it register to you that you’re saying that not just to me but to every other trauma survivor?
