Dude… I am 52 and have been fighting this same stuff since I was a child. You are truly in my head. There is both comfort and relief in knowing - while still unique - I am not alone in the dark. Powerful, powerful words here. Most of the experiences of my life, as you described when you were young, as well as the absence of any feeling of true love or happiness.
Trauma is such a stigmatised word. I started to do EMDR therapy last year to process old trauma that continues to haunt me only to find out that I also experience PTSD and CPTSD. Been struggling to accept these terms and experiences as well. I understand your struggle Ethan and greatly appreciate the humanity that you bring to the mess that is our lives and minds.
