  • I didn’t and don’t. When an interaction occurs I just shut down now. I depersonalise and am unable to acknowledge to myself that it happened. If someone asks I’ll start talking about how bad my hearing is before anything else.

    It wasn’t always like this though. For many years i thought that if I experienced trauma I would be aware of it in the moment. For many years i was exceptionally good at being my own advocate. But it catches up. Extremely lucky to have a psychologist who works at a few of the intersections I’m a part of.
