Butterfly Effect

You are who defines you. It's awful that some parents treat their child so poorly and I feel for everyone who has ever had a neglectful or abusive parent, but that does not have to define you. If you can move past something so heinous and horrible into someone who is successful and happy then you prove just how strong you really are. I'm not saying it's easy or simple, but it's ever so rewarding.

Frfr. Parents need to think about how what they do and say effects us growing up

This one hit really hard, i don't know You or anyone in here but if You want to talk and let all that out, we are here for u

having to learn as an adult that parents are supposed to be more than just a legal guardians, that they are supposed to be your first friends, teach you to socialize and be interested in you. honestly surprised by a friend's parent asking them about what they were doing

This hit me right in the childhood trauma

I relate to this very much. Children are influenced by what they grow up around, and trauma fuckin sticks like tar when it comes down to it.

This hit way harder than it needed too. All the more reason to have the reminder of: "Be the change you want to be."💚

Yea..... story of my life. Prolly why i do everything i can for others to be happy and suppress my pain and anger. But when im given a reason and it comes out im tossed back aside and its a never ending cycle.

I was not prepared
