    Dysfunctional family, their worldview is weird

    My family is SO DYSFUNCTIONAL that the only things that connect them are social norms and money. As a child, I woke up to the sound of an argument. My grandmother was overprotective of my mother, now my mother is an adult with child's brain. Another grandmother ran away from an abusive husband...

    Now I understand my trauma and talking to people became even harder

    Realizing everything people have done or not done to me leads to aggression. This awareness led to me finally starting to do what I'd always wanted, I became more self-confident—and it worked. But I can no longer bottle up all my emotions; now that I'm aware of them, it's unbearable. I can't...

    (Eng is not my first so sorry if there's any mistakes) I hate and can't forgive my classmates in college. What they did wasn't bullying like you see in movies??

    Other I want revenge..

    I've had a lot of bad situations in my life and what I'm going to talk about next is not the worst, but it won't let me go. I had some terrible classmates in college. They made fun of people who were slow at the board, sexualized girls. I can't describe everything because I just don't remember...

    Death Death of relative, Guilt.

    Sometimes I google images of dead people. My grandmother died recently. I saw her body. My relatives were crying, but I wasn’t. Her adopted daughter was just sobbing. It was so weird. After it was all over, I cried at night when no one was looking, because I was scolded for crying as a child...

    Undiagnosed Hey. Trauma feels like it wasn’t real

    I'm C. Eng not my first, sorry for mistakes if there's any. I have a diagnosed personality disorder. I've never talked to the therapist about my trauma. I just can't. I can't. Looking at my life from the outside, I ask myself - why? Why is it so strange? Abuse I've faced was weird too. In...
