Brb, sitting with this and rethinking my whole life (in a good way).

˝That person was never broken. They were just never safe enough to exist.˝-Thank you for these words! It so true what you wrote, even though for me even this isn't enough. I comprehend it logically but I still resist the reality that there is no way around. That healing of the nervous system takes a long time. That I will never be who I wanted and I instead need to find beauty in who I am. Now. Imperfectly human.
