When you're casually listening to music while doing a mundane task and a song starts playing that triggers a series of flashbacks that gives your nervous system jolt because you have complex PTSD from childhood trauma. That intense, heavy doom feeling that forms in your gut and snakes its way up to your heart before finally reaching your head. It hits you like a tidal wave and you have to grasp onto whatever you can or you just might float off into nothing. If you're lucky, nobody is around to see you unravel. The weird part is, there are really bad memories that intertwine with good and neutral ones, but the whole experience itself is so intense. It's embarrassing to say this because it makes me feel kind of weird and vulnerable, but the song is 'Kiss from a Rose' by Seal (stupid, I know). Just zaps me right back to Massachusetts where I was born and raised. I don't know... it's hard being a full grown adult and knowing that no matter what I do, this will never go away. It's a life sentence and I'm feeling it, so please excuse my less than chipper post this evening. Thanks for listening.

Inserting yourself#CPTSD
I was raised by a narcissist parent who inserted herself into everyone else's https://business.Saught attention with slander and judgment, shame and mockery. Used us, as a pawn or a means for attention. I do not reach out for that https://reason.I did and was voted out without being told.
Anytime I did reach out,it was held against me,I was told not my place, as if I wanted something instead of only wanting https://connections.I do not gossip because I was, raised in https://it.I do not believe in avoiding confrontation or dismissal of emotions to save face,for someone who's blatantly https://wrong.If they talk about someone, not in the room, you are https://next.I was the scapegoat and am expected to be small, quiet and stupid.im quite aware and able to recognize manipulation and gang mentality when I see https://it.People forget what damage has been done because time moves https://fast.The flooding of memories do https://too.And when you compound the truth of what was done with the aftermath, its gross that people can live with never speaking of it again and then turn and call me delusional? Okay.
