Recurring Dream – Blog Post #9

TW: PTSD/CPTSD, mentions of panic attacks, pedophilia, sexual harassment/assault, attempted rape — I have this recurring dream that scares me awake in the middle of the night. This dream usually only happens when I am really stressed or depressed, though there are some exceptions. When they happen, I am always unable to fall back asleep, fear, panic attacks, and tears keep me awake, and am then usually haunted by it for the next day or so. I hate thinking about this dream, it is full of distorted traumatic memories that bring back the actual things, causing me to relive those experiences. 

“Lovey” – Blog Post #6

Prompt: Did you have a “lovey” as a child? Do you still have one? – I didn’t really know what this question meant by a “lovey” but Aurora told me that it was a stuffed animal, blanket, or toy that one was very emotionally attached to and viewed as a comfort, often not wanting to be apart from it. 

Bullied – Blog Post #5

Prompt: Were you ever bullied as a child? Tell a story of a time you were bullied, or a time you observed someone being bullied. TW: Bullying — I have been bullied, though not in the typically assumed way. I wasn’t bullied by other kids in my town. I was bullied by my siblings.
