Honestly, right now I feel like I've just been shat out of the belly of the beast after the long and painful digestion which has characterised my whole life until this point.

Sometimes I have difficulty reconciling the cold truth that nobody is coming to save me and they never will and all I have is myself to rely on with Anarchist beliefs. I suppose it's just part of the overidentification with utopian fantasies while I struggle to reclaim the shattered fragments of my traumatised psyche. It would make much more sense for me to lean right wing because I view the world as unsafe and people as fundamentally dangerous. I suppose I should be thankful that humanity is not one of those positions that I have reasoned myself into.

My severe #claustrophobia is caused by #cptsd as prisoners got better treatment than I did as a kid.

#tourettes causes a lot of pain if you don't understand how to manage it. I suppressed my tics all the time out of shame, and fear from watching how my dad treated my mother. If you do that all the time, you're in immense pain.

He thought I was faking so he took everything from me. I was alone, with nothing to do, and could never leave either.

I feel myself slipping out of a week-long emotional flashback today. I awoke with more clarity, I got good sleep, and could face talking with my teammate face to face about what has been happening. During my workout today, I was focused on my body and not my mind.

But also I began to climb out of it because I finally recognized I was in it. The Inner Critic was being far too loud, and I began realizing I needed to do my steps.

I am having a flashback.
I am safe.
...

And it worked. It doesn't look like it will work when I am in the flashback, but it did.
