You don't owe anyone any apologies for taking your time. Survivors committed to working a realistic, sustainable trauma recovery understand the value of slowing down.
If someone's trying to rush you, they're telegraphing they don't understand (or care) how recovery happens.

Approximately 10,000 people marched to the Capitol on January 6th.
That means very likely *your city alone* has more people rallying to defend democracy today than the entire authoritarian faction was able to muster to destroy it.
Don’t ever let them make you believe you’re in the minority.

Anyone smear their feces on the Capitol walls today?
Beat up any cops with flag poles? Use mace or bear spray on them?
At least tell me someone constructed makeshift gallows and threatened to hang the vice president?
No?
I hate to be the bearer of bad news.
Y’all suck at political discourse.

The tension of being the only functional adult in your family can become, over time, a complex traumatic stressor-- especially if you've been the only functional adult in multiple versions of your family, going back to childhood.
Parentification is a form of neglect.

You're not "crazy" for being super reactive to a slight change in someone's tone of voice or energy toward you. That's your nervous system doing what it had to do for years.
Recovery involves smoothing out that reactivity-- without invalidating the needs or pain driving it.

Narcissistic abusers are extremely convincing while their victim is left drained, traumatized, and fighting just to be heard. That's how he gets to look like the "good guy" while she's branded the "crazy one." This is the dangerous illusion abuse creates & why survivors are often dismissed.

The most powerful force in American politics today is anti-establishment rage at a system that’s rigged against most people.
Democrats should ignore the carping of corporate-backed Wall Street Democrats and embrace Zohran Mamdani and other young progressives as the future of the party.

One reason why words & talking can be of limited value in working w/ CPTSD is that years of living in survival mode have "taught" us words can be cheap-- that to be truly safe, we need to look past what someone says, to their behavior, their energy, their consistency.

Trauma conditioning is going to try to tell you every shift in their vibe is about you-- specifically, how they're unhappy w/ or about to abandon you. That's hypervigilance & the "fawn" response trying to steer the car.

Remember, our goals in trauma recovery involve permanently changing how our nervous & endocrine systems function, & it's unrealistic to expect that to happen overnight. We're reconditioning ourselves for the long term. We want it to stick.

Slow it down; lower the stakes. Again, & again, & again. Trauma recovery is about the jabs, not the knockout blow; the mile by mile pace, not the sprint.
Most of that is contrary to how we've been conditioned, to this is your reminder: try softer. Do less. Manage THIS moment.
