You're in enough pain; you deserve to feel better

If it put you in long-term pain, it counts as trauma. You are allowed to go get help for it. If your new therapist doesn’t think so then you need another new therapist.

First part is me as a child, and the first time I saw this post it was that gif of mind blown. I really thought I was a freaky and disrespectful attention whore for wishing that.
But yeah truth is you don't need a socially validated "Actual Reason" for your suffering to exist.

I feel seen. I always thought it was incredibly weird that I experienced this. But good to know there's a reason for it.
