Childhood trauma creates a core belief that we’re a burden. This is why it’s hard for us to ask for our needs to be met. Or even feel like it’s ok to have needs. Learning to meet your own needs is a key part of healing trauma.

It restores self trust.

The one who saved my life and stomped the shooter’s face in was not a drag queen, she is a trans woman. Let’s not call trans women drag queens during this time of grieving over a transphobic attack.

EastEnders have been raising awareness around the important topic of self-harm in young people in a recent storyline. Have you been watching this? It’s believed that around 10% of young people self-harm, but it could be higher. [1/3]
