Ain’t that the Truth!!
What happened to me was not my choice. The abuse, the neglect, the abandonment, the lies, the loss, even the betrayal, none of these things were my fault!
I didn’t ask for the scars I carry now or even the nightmares that visit me as a reminder.
I also don’t need to apologise for how I survived or for the coping mechanisms I developed or used to get through some real impossible situations.
I know now that I’m gaining the strength, knowledge and power to travel along this healing journey. No one else can do this work for me, No one else can untangle or unbox the pain of my trauma which is in my nervous system. No one else can rewrite the stories trauma left in my mind and body. No one else can protect and love my inner child and teen!
That maybe isn’t fair and it’s certainly not just but to be honest it’s reality!!!
Waiting for an abuser to heal you or for the world to repair what it broke or for someone else to fix what I didn’t break…that’s giving my power away.
Not any more, that patterns are changing, that power is all mine!
Healing is how I take my life back and that’s not being selfish as some people think, it’s my right and my responsibility x 🙏
