First I had no idea where to put this so if it needs to be moved, have at it.
I was thinking about how so many people struggle with the care they didn’t receive when the trauma happened. Then I started wondering, What would that look like? I mean what kinds of words of comfort can anyone provide that helps a 10 year old CSA victim feel anything but terrible?
What do you say to a victim of rape that somehow could help them be whole again?
It’s kind of like what can anyone say to the war vet that could bring them comfort for the people they killed and the comrades they lost?
How do you bring comfort to someone who’s been through something so terrible? I honestly can’t think of anything. Like nothing would be significant enough to actually make any sort of difference.
Maybe it’s a symptom of the issue that I can think of nothing that would change how that memory is held.
Hopefully someone has something that can help me see it differently.
