gentle reminder that gaslighting isn't always an abuser blatantly calling you crazy. they may lecture you about how you're misinterpreting something. they may say something very serious is no big deal. they may get passive aggressive and leave you feeling irrational. or they may get furious at you for being overdramatic without ever directly calling you that.

gaslighting is a form of manipulation, and manipulation is most effective when the victim doesn't even notice it's happening. "you're just insane" is a lot more obvious than "i don't remember that happening, are you sure it wasn't just a bad dream?" and whether it's over or covert, both are horrible. both are dangerous. both are abusive, and oftentimes neglectful.

be careful out there, and know you know yourself best. you are the expert on you - your mind, your body, your life. no one can change that. not even the people who wield so much power over us.

do traumatized ppl ever compulsively look at "signs of childhood trauma", and still don't see their experiences within the "signs"?

i know those sites are only a surface level look into what traumatic experiences could look like, but i can't help myself. i feel the need to look through them anxiously, trying my damn best to validate my feelings.

ig i'm just afraid that i'm actually dramatic, and therefore, cannot be reliable to accurately gage the pain i have.

Whenever my source described me as an "elf" our brain took it a bit too literally.

Extra points for those who can guess who I am.

i find it amusing that our near/nate river (death note) fictive likes helluva boss.

God help, I hear the strawberry cow fictive is singing aloud again-

"♪ My milkshakes brings all the boys to the yard and they're like: Bitch, I'm a cow, Bitch, I'm a cow. I'm not a cat, I don't say meow. I love it when I go mooooo~ ♪"

♡ Hello there, welcome to our little graveyard. We collectively go by bambie (they/its), and are members of the picnic party. Our main/interactive blog is @faunabells.

♡ This space is just for our vents and silly, random thoughts. Trauma discussions would be an occurrence, but details will be vague and tws will be present.

♡ byf & dni ~

~ Believers of "narc" or "borderline" abuse. There's no special type of abuse that comes from a personality disorder. That's just abuse, guys.

~ Don't let the religious imagery fool you. This space isn't for indoctrinative religions like christianity and catholicism. If you're a follower, just block us.

~ Anti-endo/sysmed. No one has the right to dictate how people see themselves. The concept of plurality existed in cultures long before the dsm 5 was even conceived of, so you're silly little list of "symptoms" mean nothing in the grand scheme of of history.

~ Other dni that I don't feel the need to explain: right-winged, transmed/truscum, radfem, pro-life, alm, sw/terfs, & all that fun jazz.

~ Our dms are open to anyone who wants a nice chat. Though, it might just take us a bit due to most of us being shy.

~ And of course, updates to this post will be added as need: last updated: dec 5, 2023
