when you are a retired party girl you still have some of that party girl in you. Like no I do not go out 3xs a week anymore but when I make that special appearance the feral rat awakens like an ancient beast
“But she IS dead…(laughter)…she was a regular person. Just write ‘em a check. $11,000. She was 26 anyway. She had limited value.”
You can’t reform this.
it happened to me: i thought i had an issue with emotional regulation but i was just surrounded by evil people who were making me miserable. my emotional regulation is actually pretty normal when i am not being psychologically tortured
I’m proud of anyone breaking the cycle. Healing their inner child. Learning how to regulate their emotions. People don’t talk about how much humility it takes. Inner work goes unnoticed and unrecognized.
I see you.
one of my partners once was like 'you're not that pretty' during a tender moment
i rolled over in the fetal position and groaned for like an hour, and then he went and made me an im sorry card out of construction paper and markers and stickers
