if you were always told to ‘sit like a lady’ by angry adults as a kid, you’re gay now
INFJ, looking at INFP: Wow they’re so beautiful.
INFP: [trips over air]
INFJ, in awe: Gorgeous.

me, age 13, walking past a lingerie shop:
*straight person voice* not that there’s anything wrong with that
every casey and izzie stan after this iconic scene:
*calls 911*
“hello, officer, I would like to report a crime
victims of abuse be like, this person has now made me cry myself to sleep about 30 times, i have flashbacks of things they’ve done and said to me, they know how to hit me right in my worst insecurity and guilt so i feel horrible for days and months, their comments make me feel worthless and like i shouldn’t even be alive, and being around them makes me feel small and meaningless and sometimes suicidal but maybe that’s just me, maybe they’re not abusive? i have to give them benefit of the doubt, what if i’m not justified to kick them out of my life?
Cazzie + tropes
One of the things that I really hate is that people don’t understand that survivors act differently and respond to their traumas in different ways.
I’m a survivor of csa and so is my friend. Her trauma made her extremely hypersexual while I could literally cry if someone even touched me.
My bf is a survivor of csa, I can talk for hours about my trauma if I felt safe enough while he NEVER brings it up.
A friend of mine is a survivor of emotional abuse and so am I. Her trauma made her angry while mine made me soft and defenseless.
My bf remembers every little detail about his trauma, while I repressed most of my childhood and traumas.
There’s no special “criteria” that you should fill in order to be a “valid” survivor, and there’s no specific way you should act if you were abused.
People respond to their traumas differently and it’s okay, your abuse is STILL valid no matter how you respond to it.
