Spoken#avm #DBT #CBT

Missing people, for what brought out, in you, is a different type of grief. You seperate from that role, you played, if you had one. A daughter, a sibling, a spouse, friend, mentor.
When the role, is title https://only.There isnt grief, it dissolves naturally, fades away, easy and with cuts.
When that title, has influence and ground, the greiving is intense, deep and https://abrasive.That role, can strip away the layers gently or ware them down hard, it is a choice people make, who are you.
I decided to remove the layers,one by one and they hurt others, falling https://off.I asked for help and was https://dismissed.I confided and was met with defensiveness and https://denial.I sought help and was told to https://stop.I have now stepped back farther to recognize, the isolation, miscommunication and assumptions,that have plated, the narrative of my https://life.I am blessed to have had a handful, that new and know, who,I am.
Gossip and hearsay, whether true or false, says more about you, than whats being said. My son knows https://this.A large numbers of adults, do not.
And I do not sit at tables, where the course, of socializing is, speaking ill of those, not at the table. Two faced lives, do not belong in my https://life.I like to praise others, compliment their loved ones and encourage https://growth.Not scheme and chastise with guilt and https://judgement.And if pointing it out makes you uncomfortable, try again, smile, give https://grace.Try it, I did and it is easy for me to fall back and I see, https://now.Clearer now and boundaries are stronger than https://before.I will always have good memories of my life and be grateful for the good the pendulum brings.it is what I can https://control.Are you grateful for your mistakes or ashamed? Shame does nothing but paralyze.
And I learned that before talking, shame.

So now, I talk as much as I can, when I feel frozen.
It works it out, like a knot, breaks free.

They, then leave me alone, when I tell the truth and I do say the truth, when I talk.
If I hurt you, then speak to me https://directly.Not your friend or neighbor, me.
Thirsty Thanksgiving Thursday giving thanks before the cooking starts,gravy goodness and kitty cravings!!!!

You are angry, at the wrong person#DBT #CBT #artheals

I am disappointed in a woman, I admired. A few to be https://frank.She confided in me,with malicious https://intent.Dressed herself up as a feminist but secretly defends misogynistic vues,for the sake of the male https://ego.Has an elitist demeanor,overly critical and https://judgemental.The denial and anger, from this person has caused damage to years of growth, but denial runs deep...Sorry.Degrees do not make you a feminist, sorry.
I mirrored it.
I told exactly what was happening, exactly how it felt and how it was destroying the https://home.I figured out what was https://happening.I am not stupid, nieve or am I a wolf in sheep's clothing.im exposed and you watched.
I used to tell him, do not judge what happens behind someone elses marriage, you have no https://idea.I sat and watched, for years and kept quiet.
I begged, cried, pleaded for https://years.I faught and lost.
All the same issues arise, with me, out of the picture, https://funny.I am not surprised or looking for a fight.im looking to learn new and grow,put these last six years behind me for good.
Yes, six https://years.Six years ago, I saw everything and everyone, for what it, really https://was.Thank you for showing me the truth.
I wish, they could have left my Son, out of https://it.But I have learned, the kid knows, in the end, whos https://who.Who was there.

And, One day, someone will ask and they won't know any of the players, and that will feel https://good.I look forward to that day again.
Having a support circle, that is healthy, secure,transparent and https://resilient.A circle, that shows up, fully https://invested.I have had it and I will https://again.I cannot blame the ones, who needed it more.

Let the professionals do the healing work.you made it hurt,I lost time and you dragged me.you knew, did not care and were happy, at the worst time in my life.
I supported his decisions and that went against, yours.so you, went against me.
I remembered everything.

Difficult day is done#CPTSD #CBT #DBT #

Do not look for healing, at the feet, of those, who broke you.

I read that, paused and cried for a https://second.I am enjoying the holiday week.im grateful
and trying as hard as I https://can.Rereading past entries, looking for dates, I came across a couple, that showed how good I was doing.
Why would a group of people try and set a person off, for fun?Let's watch her get upset, fail? For why? For a group, that has everything, to do that,is something much deeper than,teach her a https://lesson.I fail constantly and when I see someone else, struggling, I go to them, even strangers.

You sat and watched me struggle, you knew, I was https://confused.Then you laughed at, my confusion,over time, again and again.
We are not the same.

My faults#DBT #CBT #

I write as a way to express https://myself.I do not have anyone to talk to on a regular https://basis.Ive been told, I like to hear my own voice, that one hurt. I have my art, writing,my son, my pets and small https://goals.I do not have friends anymore. When your health flips, your mind goes whppidy doo, https://too.Then your mental health becomes, top priority and it is not easy, at https://all.There is no faking https://it.I realized, a few years ago, I had less than a https://handful.I depended too much on my spouse,one friend,who actually didnt even like me and a https://frenemy.I do consider, a group of women, I shared a classroom with,my lead teachers, my https://friends.All of our lives, are busy, but that bond,will never sever for https://me.I have had enough, of
Relatives who are nice to my face but gossip when I https://left.I found, a majority of people in my world, did that, to https://everyone.Certain ones, have spent yheir entire lives spreading a narrative.So, I removed myself. I only became more aggressive and outside my character.
I cannot grow when all around me stays, as https://is.I cannot be,the only one looking for growth, accountability and change, to only be met with stonewalling and https://defensiveness.To expect someone to have a expiration date, to their own discovery, is wrong.in two months, you must be https://healed.Are you serious!

Not knowing the layers of trauma, a person has been through,is why, you don't play judge and Jury, to someone elses experience.
You sit with them, learn, at their pace, what is unraveling and https://why.Not set up to destruct to https://rebuild.That is playing with an order, already set, that noone but that individual, can https://dismantle.You are doing a disservice to your loved one, if you think, you know best.you only know, your perception, not theirs.

If You, will not, by choice,communicate, answer openly, or share insightful thoughts, engage and be vulnerable,I do not want to be around you.

If you, chastise,shame and belittle me, for my past, to https://others.I do not want you,in my life or around me or mine.You're toxic and talk poisons, not support.

I want open minded,pure heart,self aware, no shame and no more $$ transactional relationships.
If you give me a gift, do not hold it over me, later, to get something you https://want.I do not keep score with kindness.

I am done with petty jaded gossip,enabling meanness and https://ugliness.And if Im a bitch for it, please, call me a https://bitch.My boundaries, have turned me into the https://asshole.I understand this.

I am bullying the https://bully.Im sick of watching people get away with mocking, belittling and denying someone elses struggles and https://experience.Who does that?

Projecting your inadequacy on to me, is weak and goes unwarranted.
I am good alone, when the company, you keep, stabs its own on the regular.
Sometimes loyalty protects those for shame and for history sake, rather true character. I will find out more as the weeks go https://on.I will keep writing, resting and building. All I can https://do.I will not be forced to "heal" at anyone, elses https://pace.When you delay the process,hiding truths, you compound the fall. And I wont apologize for being transparent, because I was.
I will not pander, to hiding parts of myself, for a couple people to feel comfortable with their own https://issues.Stay in your own lane, even when invited.

I waited#DBT #cbt#avm #childhoodcptsd #AicardiSyndrome

I thought if I was transparent,others would https://follow.I believed it for https://years.I would smile, be forthcoming and it would be reciprocal,just https://enough.Did I know my vulnerabilities would be turned as weapons, no.am I surprised, now that the players are exposed, not one bit surprised.
Women, who coddle grown men and give excuses for men, who belittle, dismiss and undermine, other women, are the https://problem.They joke, make light, pander to the one who, doesnt care, shows zero concern and turns prideful when https://questioned.But he doesn't hit her, so prop him up and pat him on the head..I am so tired of these excuses, from women.Atleast, he didnt hit you? DID YOU REALLY SAY THAT!Four women, so https://far.I should have been grateful, they are https://saying.The bar is, to not be hit and I should be grateful.Nope, I deserve better.it could be worse so I better appreciate what I https://have.Excuse me.No, he needs to appreciate what he https://had.He needs to be happy we held him up, plated the role he wanted, for his https://comfort.The audacity to portray something you never, tried to https://grow.No effort, all forced and instructed, to get it done.
Something I have begged for, curtesy and https://inclusion.To turn and portray, my lowest point in my life, as a catapult to https://leave.That is not my cross to https://carry.I have not worked this hard and long, in my life to be called, lazy, attention seekingπŸ˜„, golddigger,thats funny,a cunt(family favorite for them)a bitch, a nag, a whore, controlling(another funny one) and messy, my https://favorite.All said by the women, in his life. I cant imagine why a woman, wouldnt want that environment? Really ladies, wise up, try teaching men how, to speak to a woman,behind their backs as well as to their https://face.Try encouragement or honesty,stop plotting revenge to save face for tea time, try telling them, they are wrong for treating their spouses like an option, a burden and maybe, NOT decide to phase them out with gossip and https://slander.Be a man, speak for yourself and stop playing BOTH SIDES.
The women around your husband, should support the wife, not insult them, stalk them, gossip and trade stories, to isolate https://them.But I now know.Amazing,the charm is thick but he sure had enough of them on the sidelines, waiting.Funny, all rallied around pretty quick, for never being involved https://before.And how not one ever came to me, sad bunch.Huh, isnt life funny when the curtain gets pulled https://back.I wasn't wrong and that really bothers people, sorry.

Call me what you please#DBT

I find humor in being called strategic and cunning, after a manipulator fails.
When a bully, flops to a quiet room and a joker, falls https://flat.All types of gaslighting, phycological warfar and DARVO, I will see through your reverse phycological https://game.It is not a game I play, unless you deal that hand https://first.Do not cry foul, when you https://fumble.You should never underestimate a woman, who follows patterns in behavior.
Bating,gaslighting,munipulation, coersion...just stop, it is played and https://abusive.And definitely don't do that to a person in, active therapy.

Expectations #DBT #CBT

I asked for clarification, Im told Im https://arguementative.I asked for inclusion and was told next https://time.I asked for response and told, I didnt follow https://through.I wanted order, told I was https://controlling.I need help, told I complain and want https://attention.Asked for attention, told I was too https://needy.I said Im not feeling right, told I was https://pretending.I was in pain and was told it was in my head.Couldn't feel my hand, told to try https://harder.My legs felt funny, told I was https://lazy.Felt dizzy, told Im not drinking water.
Now, Im a bitch, a cunt, a nag, a bad person? No, thats not how therapy works.
Im remembering all of https://it.And others,denying what I went through, will not change my reality or https://circumstances.No matter how helpful, you feel, your orchestrated life lessons might https://be.I will still have my AVM,like I have since the beginning of my mother's existence, yes that far back.

Time#CPTSD #Hurts #DBT

The vet called and let me know, she made it through the https://night.I am grateful and trying not to think about her.so tiny and https://hurt.Sge has some bleeding still but she https://purred.Im going to go up in a couple days.
It has happened too many times.my heart hurts,actually https://hurts.I am tired and trying to jump over the ridiculousness of these people, who are not good for my nervous system one bit.to not understand a person has limits, and for someone to try to push those, purposefully, that is, a level of dark, I do not cater to.Catfishing, facilitating and coordinated https://harrassment.I find it tacky, low brow and https://gross.Ecspecially when you can communicate https://directly.You can paint it as concern, harmless talk and just joking, all you https://want.Gossip is harmful and mean. One person implies one thing,from an opinion from someone else, to be added onto by another, who heard from their cousin and her friend said her own sister hates https://her.And if from a man, she definitely pissed him off, his ego.
I felt like I was ran over by a bus yesterday, because of the lil https://kitty.Everything else, a joke,now? But things do not https://dissappear.They are only on pause, I learned.

Im physically exhausted,confused and still, trying to work it https://out.How long,do I make it, how do I name to each, a label or itemize,I dont feel like I have privacy online either, so half the time I freeze, doing https://research.Its a https://problem.Ive been writing it, old https://school.Compiling the canvas and sculptures, together into one, I saw the flow of it one day and was floored. It unraveled into more than I https://anticipated.I am not finished, not even https://close.I keep gathering ends to wrap up, but its never https://ending.I packed away the sticks and stones, for the https://winter.The clay will be my work for a while.im tired, really tired today.Labored, fatigued and slow as molasses.Fckers.Sorry,people drain the life outta me.
