“A couple months ago, reddit taught me that newlyweds used to plant sycamore trees on both sides the walkway leading to their house, then join them together to symbolize two becoming one. Today I saw it for the first time.”

Growing up in an abusive household is a fucking trip dude……If you’ve never had someone angrily wash a dish at you or fold a sock in your direction then how are you gonna understand why I get nervous when you quietly do the laundry, or why I ask “are you mad at me?” when you set the bag of groceries down too hard? It’s a totally different way of living and it impacts you long after you’ve left the situation.
This is so important.
Abused kids speak a language you can’t learn
My heart races when I hear someone sigh and then the adrenaline takes forever to wear off. I hate having these reactions even when I know I am safe.
It really is the tiniest things that trigger me and ppl seem to think I’m exaggerating.
Abused kids speak a language you can’t learn
Or when someone says something random, but it’s in THAT tone and it reminds you of your situation and you hear the words in back of your head for next few hours

Sometimes you never know what will set it off. Yesterday at work one person was reminiscing her childhood claiming my mom just let me do whatever, “she didn’t care she’d leave us alone for hours, I’d go to the library by myself” She thought her mother would’ve been mortified of her behavior. I thought wow you had a loving, trusting mother that you regularly betrayed and as an adult you feel bad. I couldn’t imagine having a loving, trusting parent….And then it came rushing back, I was never allowed to be alone, she would tell me how I wasn’t to be trusted. To her I was such a bad kid at home, she made to feel that nothing I did was ever right. She was constantly criticizing everything I did, from the way I folded clothes, to the way I prayed. My abuse surrounds every part of my daily life; but I’ve made the choice to blame nothing on being abused and only try harder to fix it, to change the learned behavior. To focus on the positive instead of the abuse that occurred. I choose not to be a victim, but to overcome. I am fine and it is okay to be in my home alone.

“Before you say yes, get him angry. See him scared, see him wanting, see him sick. Stress changes a person. Find out if he drinks and if he does, get him drunk - you’ll learn more about his sober thoughts. Discover his addictions. See if he puts you in front of them. You can’t change people, baby girl. If they are made one way, it doesn’t just wear off. If you hate how he acts when he’s out of it now, you’re going to hate it much worse eight years down the road. You might love him to bits but it doesn’t change that some people just don’t fit.”
