There are survivors reading this who are in the position of being told to seek help for their PTSD-- from the very institutions & organizations that caused their PTSD.

We need (way) more trauma recovery services not affiliated with major medical institutions or the military.

They were also wrong to say, "You'll figure it out," then moving on without offering support.
I've come to dislike words over action. People say anything. But the living works of principality moves through us like LIFE animating our souls.
They were not wrong to have identified you as a "gifted" kid.

But they are very wrong to suggest or assert that you've somehow "wasted" your potential because you struggle w/ trauma or other emotional or behavioral challenges.

That's NOT a fair description of what happened.

Naturally I don't tolerate bs. Trauma makes it nearly impossible. The drive is not present. I need order amidst chaos.
One of the biggest practical challenges many adult trauma survivors face is that recovery is really hard without adequate support-- but our experiences have made it difficult to relate to many people, & our inner circle is often limited to, like, two other people & some animals.

It costs zero dollars to keep some realistic, specific-to-you affirmations & mantras handy & repeat them to yourself to stay focused on your recovery & life goals today.

The quality of our CPTSD recovery is the quality of our consistent focus, & no tool is "too basic" to help.

No matter what happens to today, no matter the triggers or our reactions, we're going to process & respond to them in ways that are consistent w/ our commitment to self-respect, self-compassion, & realistic recovery. Period.

We do not "have" to sh*t on ourselves today. Really.

People don’t really “fall out of love.”
They fall out of patience.
Out of effort.
Out of choosing the same person every day.

Love doesn’t die—
it just gets neglected.

I need white men to be more critical of their political choices. How do you love black folks and POC, but vote for a party who despises us? You didn't SEE it? WE TOLD YOU.

Oh, it's just so hard to listen to negros, innit?

Whether or not anyone from your family of origin understands, likes, approves of, or loves the identity you've carved out for yourself as you've healed, I want you to know, without a shadow of a doubt, that you are absolutely worth being proud of, affirming, & celebrating.

We don't build the new "us" in recovery by rejecting, shaming, or trying to erase the old "us." We build our recovery "self" by realistically acknowledging, accepting, & caring for our past wounds, vulnerabilities, & deficits.

Grace over guilt. Every day. Especially today.

The best part? When professionals say things like "nervous system repair," they make you believe it's all flowers and meditation. Get up and scream. Break something. Don't apologize. Say "fuck this" and give yourself permission to have a good day. In spite of it all.
Even if "they" apologize, & even if you choose to forgive them, the damage to your nervous system is real & can't be undone w/ the wave of a wand. Give yourself the time & support to realistically recover.

Nervous system repair is as physical as it is emotional or spiritual.

I didn't just leave family: I left being used for my skill & availability, while being disrespected and told to tolerate it. I left chronic pain in the past with those connections. Stomach aches, backaches, knee pain and sacral issues -- all gone since I went no contact with my mom & her family.
Because someone shares your name or DNA doesn't mean you are anything like them-- or that you owe them interaction or access to you that compromises your safety, stability, or recovery.

"Okay, but..."

Nope. "But" nothing. Your recovery comes first-- full stop.

You know you look crazy. It is so fucking sad. Nobody has the heart to tell you that they see it. They see it now: You are so damn rude. You will exploit literally anyone. You have almost NO self-esteem. You wake up sad - and that isn't a read, it is fact.

For the first time since Texas Isaiah photographed me - another photographer captured photos of me that love. Ericka Hume, whom I met AT the 2025 World Pride Dance Party and Skaters jam.

I will also like to add that this thread is not in any way some kinda endorsement of the blue maga genocidal democrats. I fucking hate both US capitalist and white supremacist political parties. They're just two separate wings of one party built for the capitalist ruling class. Fuck both of them!

Systemic racism in South Africa against BIPOC is far worse than the already high amount of it that can be seen in the US, and that is saying something. White South Africans are some of the most racist pieces of shit you'll ever find, and are about as far from being victims as it gets.
