Hey so this is a bit of a graphic story of one of my biggest trauma’s I personally went through, and I will show you what I done to make sure this did not actually become a real big trauma.
So anyways here the story goes, it begins in August 2021, it was the 1st on a Sunday I was out with my friends as I would have done on the summer holidays off from school.
Anyways I live beside a massive abandoned mill and I was and still am pretty fascinated / interested by it.
Anyways on this day I was with my friends and we were in the mill just walking about and I will admit vandalising it, smashing windows and etc.
And anyways the place was massive and there was a building at the back which still had an intact roof as all the other buildings were burnt and anyways we were in the back building and at the back of that the first floor extended outwards and had a roof, and I was on the second floor of the back building then I climbed out to the roof via a broken window.
And I walked across a really dodgy wooden plank then I went on a metal beam and sat their and there was tons of unbroken windows out on the roof, and I wanted to smash them.
And it reminds me of a video game scene from battle field 4 were the car is underwater and the main character kicks the window through and thats what I wanted to do.
And I kick one window and it is fine, then I see a thicker, stronger window, I kick it once and it does not break but the second time it does, then my leg got caught in it and I pulled it out and yeah it seriously cut my leg open, then I said to my friends “Ah it couldn’t be that bad right?”
And then I rolled my joggers up so I could see the damage and it was really really bad, to this day I have never seen anything like it and one of my friends seen it too, and it really shook me up.
And then I just froze for a few seconds then I just ran and I was only 13 at the time and I was screaming running and just trying to process what I went through and man I did scream and cry, which is what I meant by how I have been able to deal with this trauma.
I will admit though as I write this I still am twitching / shaking and feeling a bit shook up so I still have some healing work to do here.
But I will say I am super glad I did not restrain myself from the screaming, crying and etc when I was right in the moment cause of not I would have developed a really, really bad trauma and it really would have messed me up or even ruined my life.
Remember always process your emotions.
