“It’s your fault you didn’t get over your trauma, just get over it,you should be over it by now” -mfs who’ve never had PTSD.
As an ND, yes, and, while it’s not our faults we are wounded, it’s still our responsibility to try to get well.
By way of analogy, if I’ve stepped or been shoved into a campfire, I am going to do my utmost to get myself out of it and seek wound care. And let me tell you something afrer suffering a serious burn over a good portion of my body: they debride with wire brushes and change dressings often.
In the current system, it’s often too exhausting, expensive or just impossible for many people to get the help they need, no matter how hard they try to access it. I don’t blame people for just giving up. In many places the help to make a genuine difference really just isn’t available.
It’s all three in my case. I don’t know how I still find the will to keep going. But I do.
Yes, I’ve long since reached the stage where I only try and get medical help if it’s either something painfully urgent, or something I need for a benefit claim. It’s just so difficult and frustrating accessing medical care and when I do, it’s usually absolute rubbish.
And by “everyone” they mean them and their friends, as if we’re not able to make friends with other people like us. But hey our friends aren’t proper either, so they don’t count.
I just read the comments on a post on reddit’s anime titties about the Ukraine war. This is very oddly well timed. Those people are insane.
