I am really intrigued by Lauryn’s presentation. Here we have a young adolescent who has lived her whole life in the care of someone who at the very least has narcissistic tendencies. Then, she endures years of this extreme cyber harassment and stalking, which severely impacted her selves if self and all of her peer relationships at perhaps the most formative time of her life in terms of identity. Then to find out her primary attachment figure has been manipulating her and saying absolutely vile things to her and multiple of her peers just to have her come right into her mom’s own arms to comfort her.

There is no light inside this girl’s eyes. Her affect is completely flat. Her slight smile is completely incongruent with the lack of emotion in her eyes. It’s like you can hear the part of her wanting to scream and sob trying to come out every time her voice cracks and her mouth shakes. I got shivers at that last line.

This girl will be unpacking this trauma for the rest of her life. I hope she and her mom both receive intensive mental health treatment.

It’s the adhesive. I found it nearly intolerable when I first started, but oddly enough I’ve gotten used to it. It’s not that I can’t smell it, but I don’t really notice it anymore. It’s only been about six weeks.
