@mom.behind.the.scenes: Replying to @Sawyer Disappointing others when I can’t live up to their hope is a feeling that I’m recognizing. Please silently have hope for me, but sharing that hope with me adds an extra layer of pressure. #trauma #support #MentalHealth #ptsd
Letting go of hope was the best decision I ever made. It is much easier to make it through each day, when I don’t have the emotional pain of disappointment and defeat weighing on me too.

You have to take care of yourself, take small steps. Mental health never goes away, and everyone needs to understand that …. And you are not a failure, you need arms around you and ask for it.

You said this perfectly. Going through depression currently due to childhood trauma and trying to do the things to lift the fog. But for now I’m in the weird place.

Yes. We lived a similar nightmare. Then she got much better & did well for years. Then she died. Dealing with everyone else’s reactions to all of it has been hard.

I’ll sit with you. Different situation but I have a big mess too that no one is sitting with me in it except husband. Def do not need to spend energy making it seem better for people who fake care.

Right - “better” can just be not as awful, and people do not want to hear that and they get tired of the heaviness and you not taking their obvious advice. It’s very hard.

I love the way you articulate your need v what everyone wants to give. I would like for those listening and watching to know that those struggling also often feel the same way towards these words.

The mess is messy for the whole journey. Hope is messy as well ❤️hope for you to keep learning ways to navigate all of the messiness. Your messiness doesn’t need to have feelings to others.
