It's been a year & I have not told my parents or sibling about my #autism 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 #GenX - 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?

Meanwhile, not a single damn charge, trial, conviction, or fine against the Catholic Church. Not even so much as an investigation. It's disgusting, and disgraceful, and the Church deserves no support or quarter.

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.

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.
