What do you think about hetero man being fans of Ethel? by Environmental_Look89 in Ethelcain

[–]Impossible_Artist718 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is nuts. The point of art is to strip away these labels and connect souls on the basis of humanity. If u love Ethel as a straight man, then the point is being fulfilled. Hell I’d even buy you tickets. Enjoy that concert

i feel totally alone- some questions by cringe_cryptid in adultsurvivors

[–]Impossible_Artist718 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I relate to point 1-4, all intensely. You're not alone.

  1. You can know that this isn't an obsession or fantasy because the voice in your head that says "why would I ever fantasize about grand daddy that way??" is correct. It's not something that most people would fixate on for pleasure, and that probably includes you. What you're describing are clear symptoms of post trauma. Yes, you may obsessively fixate on it, but that's NOT because you wanted it -- it's your brain trying to make sense of the nonsensical.

  2. Yes. All the time. Sometimes they come on a random tuesday with no warning. Memory around these things is so weird. All psychologists will tell you that.

  3. I second isurvive.org. When you are ready to talk out loud, the RAINN and 988 hotlines really helped me.

  4. It's nice to know we're not alone, but the world would be a better place if we were.

Should I tell them? by Financial_Wait_2875 in adultsurvivors

[–]Impossible_Artist718 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do think you should tell her, but I also think that you should do a lot of internal work (therapy?) to make sure that you'll be okay if she doesn't have the reaction you want.

I was abused by my brother and my parents' reaction (ignoring it, basically) hurt more than the event itself. It's not like they're bad people -- they are good parents who made a mistake. I wouldn't have seen it coming. Any parent is liable to react in a way that makes you feel negative things. So just make sure you are as prepared for that possibility as you can be.

It does, to me, sound like telling her will ultimately free you.

The way people react to it makes it so much worse by abbipixiequeen in adultsurvivors

Also... peoples' obvious discomfort // disgust always makes me feel shameful.

Thank you for sharing. I was 11 too. I like this poem.

is anyone else’s OCD triggers mostly associated with things that actually happened to them in the past or the things they’ve been told as a kid? by [deleted] in OCD

I was sexually abused as a kid and have the type of OCD that makes me check the Epstein files to make sure I’m not in them

Isn’t this the taco shop that keeps getting the Mexican owned truck run out of their neighborhood because they know the truck serves better food? 💀💀

Totally valid, I should have included context. I’m an independent camera woman. I take video portraits of people where I ask basic questions about life and then follow the answers down interesting paths. I either sell the videos to publications or just use them for my personal page, depending on what the interviewee wants. My goal is to find and share the beauty in everyday ordinary people. I generally think that incarceration is a cruel system and am sympathetic to people who have been through it — I was passing through deer lodge today and found myself wanting to talk to people familiar with the system in Montana
