It's been a year & I have not told my parents or sibling about my diagnosis. I don't expect a bad reaction, but I've this intense bitterness that says they don't deserve to know.

I guess it's part of being - growing up invisible to your own family unless you weren't 'behaving' and 'needed an attitude adjustment.' Where's that on your 90s Nostalgia lists, Buzzfeed?

It is possible for a human to be so broken they become unable to see how broken they are. In this state, not being able to recognise damage means they have a greater capacity for inflicting it as a simple, unseen, uncontrolled by-product of their behaviour.

Now imagine parents damaged in this way damaging their children.

Now extend this back through generations.

How we arrived at the world we have now makes a lot more sense, doesn't it?

It is possible to be so broken you don't see your own damage (those sensors are broken also) and therefore not to see how you are damaging others in turn.

Once you understand this the world makes MUCH more sense. A horrific kind of sense but sense nonetheless.

Yes! We Measure the Earth with Our Bodies was one of the best books I read this year-- so absolutely riveting and moving and sweet. I could not put it down and did not want to end.

There is space
for both
empathy
for the trauma
they survived

and for holding them
accountable for
inflicting
their pain
on you.

Space
for healing
can be made
to honour both.
There is space.
