it appears that within all of us, theres this massive backlog of unfelt emotion that, once accessed and cleared, causes a huge transformation of how life looks and feels. —

Nothing exposes toxic environments faster than experiencing healthy ones.

This is exactly why public reputation is a terrible metric for private character.
The nicest guy in the room is often saving his cruelty for the one person who can’t speak up.
Judge them by how they treat you when the audience is gone.

Narcissists are very kind to friends and generous and sincere to strangers, loyal to their colleagues, and supportive in their society. They are charming, calculated, and hypocritical. And they are mean, unfriendly, manipulative, and play mind games with those close to them.

During narcissistic abuse, decisions stop being about what you want. Instead, they become about how someone else might react. It’s easy to be labeled as indecisive when you’re scanning for moods instead of trusting yourself.

Your body is sacred. The fact that someone in the past did not understand or respect that does not make it less so.
Evil people defile sacred spaces every day. Those spaces are not rebuilt by denying their power or beauty-- but by affirming it.

I wish we stopped calling it “poor mental health,”and started naming things like oppression, abuse, past traumas that live in peoples minds and bodies. Poor mental health is often a result of poor treatment. In order for there to be change, the whole story needs to be told.
it’s so fucked to wake up and realize how much of your young life was basically you pretending to be smaller (less assertive, less expressive, less smart) than you actually were just so that people who wanted to control you would never be challenged

I was constantly accused of things i didn't do growing up.
So when it happens to me as an adult, my body has a physical reaction & I struggle to keep my cool.
All bc my mother loved punishing me instead of mothering me.

I grew up with paranoid parents and they were never satisfied with the truth no matter how I spoke and formed my sentences. I didn't know that 'normal' people are even more suspicious when you are defensive just because you were taught that you need to fight for your truth.

CPTSD survivors have to be real careful to be gentle w/ ourselves when we're trying to get sh*t done. Survivors of verbal & emotional abuse especially can shut down in a hurry when we try to pull that "tough love" "drill sergeant" routine to try to "motivate" ourselves.

You are not the reason ppl over stepped and took things to far… remember that… even if we lack a loud voice ppl willing to take advantage of that are the ones at fault

You do not have to love your past decisions. I don't love mine. But punishing ourselves for them can't un-make them. Shame & harsh self-punishment only increase the chances we'll say "f*ck it" & go all in on more not great decisions.
Just do the next right thing.

Staying silent to keep him comfortable slowly destroys you—your peace matters more than pretending you’re okay.
