depression, trauma, coping.
I’ve had a moment today where i’m very much realizing how Not Okay i am and have been. I’m so completely oblivious to my own emotions that i’m just like “oh I’m really not okay aren’t i”.
Which seems silly because i’m in a really good place in life right now. I suppose, though, thats part of the issue.

Nothing made me realize just how bad things were than distancing myself from it all, and physical distance, as it turns out, was a big factor.
It has hit me in a crushing way, though, that i don’t seem to be able to really function right with. I mean, i keep crying and crying and sinking down and escaping when i should be doing work.
I went through so, so much and even though it was long ago, getting physically far away from the places i was traumatized hits hard

Scarred you may be, but strong you are as well for managing to pull yourself out of that.

@Oneironott That sounds a lot like what I've had to cope with over the last year. And how all of it was tied to past events that never really clicked until finding a new shift in perspective.
You've got this, Vlo. You're not alone here, and you definitely have my support.

I almost died. Numerous times. Some of my friends -did- die. I’m been so damaged by my trauma that i don’t even function like others do. It took so much for me to get here and i did and just… looking at what i went through and realizing how deeply and wholly… I can’t even begin to think of a word for it. Like… deeply and viscerally scarred and devastated i am as a being.
