Quote
What good is a coherent narrative if people don’t want to hear it? Because trauma won’t leave you alone until you feel safe, and safety is not something that an individual can summon on their own. Safety is not a gun. Safety is being able to trust that those around you WANT to protect you from harm. But if those around you don’t believe you are “like them,” then they will focus on the discomfort you make them feel, and that discomfort is not a safe space
Ten Steps to Nanette: A Memoir Situation, Hannah Gadsby

Tell me why i find it painful making new friends? Like my mind will physically not allow it. I end up ghosting them as soon as i start feeling overwhelmed by their love.
Fuck.

i think we should remind musicians they can absolutely make up little stories for their songs btw. it doesn’t have to be about them at all. you can invent a guy and put him in situations to music. time honoured tradition in fact.

It's crazy how trauma makes you push people away when all you want is love.

Being healed isn’t about feeling nothing. Being healed is about feeling the appropriate emotions at the appropriate times and still being able to come back to yourself. That’s just life.

Me recordaste por qué había dejado de expresar mis sentimientos.
Y me dolió hasta el alma.
