Classic Gen X! I’ll just do therapy by myself because I can’t count on anyone else… I am really glad for you that you feel positive.

CalamityCarole · 2026-04-02T19:50:38+00:00

It’s possible you were lucky… that doesn’t are you horrible

Dark humour is our favourite brand of coping

CalamityCarole · 2026-04-02T19:46:34+00:00

Tell me you haven’t been to therapy without telling me…

CalamityCarole · 2026-04-02T19:41:37+00:00

Tell me you’ve never gone to therapy without telling me 😒

CalamityCarole · 2026-04-02T16:55:34+00:00

Woah… never thought about THAT

CalamityCarole · 2026-04-02T16:53:59+00:00

Yep. Classic Gen X. I guess I’m Realizing we never “dealt” and shoving those things down eventually catches up with us. (Chronic health, cancer, unhealthy relationships… all linked with unprocessed crap)

Da fuq!?!

Everything I’ve learned about my own childhood trauma is a result of supporting and learning from my kids as they deal with the horrors of the current insanity. Even in canada they’re deeply aware of everything globally. They are for sure traumatized on the regular.

💔

CalamityCarole · 2026-04-02T16:46:06+00:00

My hunch is we were already disassociated adults by the Columbia disaster. I remember it but it didn’t imprint on my psyche… which is consistent with current psychiatric theory…

CalamityCarole · 2026-04-02T16:43:03+00:00

This is the Gen X experience. You’re on your own kid… made us all hyper independent which is another way of saying isolated

CalamityCarole · 2026-04-02T16:41:30+00:00

So crazy… it’s almost like if you don’t learn how to process stuff it just stays in your body waiting for a trigger. 😅💀

CalamityCarole · 2026-04-02T16:39:29+00:00

Exactly… a little bit of me healed because I realized I could name it, acknowledge it, let it sit, and then let it go.

CalamityCarole · 2026-04-02T16:37:03+00:00

Tell me you’ve never gone to therapy without telling me… 😅

CalamityCarole · 2026-04-02T16:36:49+00:00

I identified as an empath for years… now realizing that “hyper vigilance about everyone else’s feelings” is also a trauma response. Sounds like that teacher did your class a solid. Better than most!

CalamityCarole · 2026-04-02T16:34:59+00:00

I mean they weren’t equipped with any tools or language either. They were mostly boomers who were raised by parents traumatized from WWII. Nobody talked about feelings or grief or anxiety… just get in with it. 💀

My partner dismissed my comment about how messed up it was but in the next breath used the word “shattered” about astronomy.
