My self-defense misjudged, a pattern:

My self-defense misjudged as 'mean'.
My self defense misjudged as 'vindictive'.
My self defense misjudged as 'toxic'.
My self defense misjudged as 'malicious'.
My self defense misjudged as 'being dramatic'.
My self defense misjudged as 'making a scene'.
My self defense misjudged as 'cruel'.
My self defense misjudged as 'trying to be spoiled'.
My self defense misjudged as 'manipulative'.

My self defense misjudged as 'selfish'?!

@GreenRoc depends. How do you act? Reacting is totally your right, but how you behave afterwards is all on you

@wEdawgg "how you behave afterwards is all on you"

I dont have control over some of the things that my body does. People tend to get pretty mad at these things I have no control over.

It's involuntary, these things that happen. I try to avoid these things but the stimulus that triggers them wont stop doing the triggering.

Screaming, cussing, self abuse, falling on the floor, numerous different stuff, nothing I want to chose to do. I try to avoid but I cant stop the triggers.

@GreenRoc then you are a victim of yourself.

Because there is something you could do you could choose to do something different, but you choose to do the same

Note: put that way… it does kinda seem like they were right to begin with if even you too are a victim of these actions.

@wEdawgg Yes, I am terrified of myself. I am terrified of what my body will do when it is stimulated with the things I dont want to be encountering.

It's hurt and ended friendships, it's hurt family, it's broken some bones of mine, and some torn ligaments, it's terrifying to live inside this body.

I cant stop triggers, because triggers are other people making certain noises and saying certain things, and many other human-made things that pose a threat to me.

I need people to understand.

@GreenRoc it seems like a lot of how you feel depends on the outside world being exactly the way you want it to be.

I would suggest really tearing apart the thoughts about why you need to control others to feel safe personally.

But about the other stuff…

triggers can be hard thing for anyone to tackle. And I wasn’t saying that you’re not allowed to have them or that they shouldn’t affect you the way that they do.

all I’m saying is how you lash out to other people is in your control.

@wEdawgg @GreenRoc dude. Ptsd IS A DISABILITY
If someone is saying "stop hurting me" and you say "its selfish to scream"
You are probably in the wrong.
Stop harassing people. Thats You being a abusive.
Get over yourself and stop being a bigot and a bully.

@CatHat @GreenRoc I have it. Doesn’t make me lash out of other people. I have triggers I just don’t blame other people for them. I just have to deal with my reactions. Same advice that I said originally.

Besides it’s called “victim mentality” for a reason.

@wEdawgg @GreenRoc you just lashed out at roc.
Get over yourself.
@CatHat @GreenRoc how did I just lash out at rock?

@CatHat did you really just use the term ableist and keep a straight face?

also, you already know, I am also someone who suffers from PTSD suffers from a motor functioning disorder, and auditory processing … so before you go on calling names? Educate yourself.

@wEdawgg AuDHD, visual disabilities, lame, various gi problems.

Everyone here is disabled dude. Get over yourself and stop assuming internalized ableism isn't ableist.

@CatHat soooooo… what’s ur point again? That I’m lashing out? So you’re doing what exactly?
