I Realize That I

[whiteraven]

I realize that I need to resign myself to the fact that nothing--not the physical or the emotional--will be getting better.

Funny because “bits n bobs” is so British

I realize that I feel “safest” when a partner shows little to no care toward me.

I realize that being chosen, known, and valued wasn’t safe, wasn’t possible, and wasn’t something I was allowed to want. Being seen, having needs, and hoping for real care led to disappointment, neglect, and harm. I still feel like wanting those things is a risk too big to take. And that’s holding me back from something that maybe I could have, though it feels impossible.

I never had a chance to live and experience the world for what it really is.

I realize from the media with a hockey player that people don't realize what EDS is. I didn't originally either. But it involves also sensitivity and the autonomic nervous system- blood pressure, digestion and temperature control also, as well as things like swallowing, potential allergy to cold etc.

But I realize I've done pretty good managing it, all things considered!
