Craziest part about this is that I was talking to my brother today like, “there’s never going to be any justice for us. there’s no apology or anything, coming, ever”

i feel for you, personally to me the most upsetting part about my childhood trauma is the fact that i won’t ever hear an “im sorry” or even just an acknowledgment of what they did. it really sucks, but i hope you’re getting the healing you deserve even with out that 🫶🏻🫂
I think the most upsetting part for me was not being able to stop/escape it. But I brought up the amends thing because I scored highest in the injustice category lol. I’m not really sure full healing is accessible to me now but maybe one day 🫶🏽
I'm in therapy not only for myself, but also my mother.
It's unfair that we have to heal and mend something that we didn't break. But it's better than passing it along to those around us.
One day that terrible thing won't hurt you anymore.
Yes I agree that’s definitely something I’ve struggled w/ before the frustration/anger of it took so much effort to survive this & now I have to contribute more to fix it. When u say pass it on wdym by that? /gen
I would like to believe one day it won’t but I don’t. I think some things hurt forever
We can pass it on not only to our own children if we have them. But our trauma behaviour can affect the people around us, like friends and partners.
Without meaning it, we can hurt them in similar ways that we were hurt.
Yeah, that was the case for me too and when CPS was called they covered it up all nicely.
Bonuspoints for them to threaten me with becoming homeless if I told the truth.
I had a similar experience and tbh being forced to lie was re-traumatizing and additionally they shared my name with my parents so I was treated like shit afterwards. Yesterday one of my sisters told me the CPS situation was traumatic for them too bc actually one of the workers followed my dad 💀
