Its really important when dealing with trauma that people remember that trauma is not always just one life changing event. Its also microagressions, put downs, neglect, emotional manipulation, etc. This type of trauma very rarely gets brought to light in the general public because we don’t necessarily understand how its going to affect humans down the road. We constantly tell people that they can rise above how they were brought up, negating that they have been affected by these things.

the Neurodivergent Childhood Experience™ is just [get treated differently by everyone and not really knowing why] [embrace being The Weird Kid] [hang out with a few other Weird Kids who are probably neurodivergent themselves and realize that they were the only people who treated you like a human being] [like things """"too much""""" and """""too obsessively"""""] [get shamed for showing symptoms of your disorder] [get called weird] [get ignored by "friends" for being weird] [try to be "normal" by observing the way neurotypicals act] [get called quiet and socially awkward] [get called weird] [become very distant and no longer able to form connections with people] [get called weird]

feel free to add on 😳

[own and embrace being different from other people][get accused of internalized misogyny]

We forgot about it

I once signed up to participate in a study on how depression affects memory, forgot I was meant to go do it, and when I emailed to apologise to the PhD student running it she basically told me that a) she was very used to this happening and b) the weird irony of her theories’ correctness making it very difficult to arrange proving them had by now gone from infuriating to hysterical

I went to the Grand Canyon when I was depressed and I literally forgot the whole thing. Like, the only reason I even know I was there is that I have photographs of myself standing in front of the Grand Canyon with dead eyes but i have absolutely no memory of it

People talk about depression like it’s just being sad all the time but straight up your brain stops working and sadness is just one of the many, many consequences of that

my memory has gotten so bad at one point I couldn’t remember easy words. It would sometimes take me MINUTES to formulate what I wanted to say. it’s better now, but I still have an absolute TRASH memory

me: *doesn’t hear from best friend for a day*

me: omg are we drifting? we’re drifting. I don’t know what is happening in your life. I’m so out of touch. We don’t know each other anymore. What is our friendship?
