@sero_one I used to think that the goal was fixing, but my opinion now is that we just make ourselves something new. It takes time to figure it out, but you'll get there. Maybe I will too someday.
@sero_one Bad things happened to you, but that isn't the end of your story.

I have learned to accept that the shitty things in my past happened (at least some of them) and instead of morning what could have been if they didn't, I embrace the strength that it gave me.

Most trauma resources are clinical. Mine isn't. Diary of a Flopping Fish is written by a survivor, for survivors (and the families figuring out how to help). Real talk with real research. www.diaryofafloppingfish.com #CPTSD #MentalHealth #blogger #survivorCommunity
