This is why I have trust issues and just take care of things myself most of the time.

I woke up from a nightmare, then something else trauma related happened that caused me a small panic attack. But nobody chose to stay for me. I would give anything to have someone like stef Foster or Lena in my life. .

I really wish I had someone like Stef or Lena Foster in my life.

I hate that trauma has made me unacceptable in the eyes of someone who is supposed to love me unconditionally.

I have come a long way in my trauma recovery journey with hard work and God's love and grace. But I still need compassion and emotional support from people. I don't think that's too much to ask.

But yet people can't find it in their hearts to do that for me. I'm not asking for much. Especially right after I get off the phone with them. If she had just picked up when I called back eight minutes later, I wouldn't be fighting a panic attack or on edge now.

It doesn't matter where I am-including vacation! Trauma goes with me. Putting things first that aren't important at the moment just invalidates my trauma and feelings all the more.

The worst thing you can do to someone who has trust issues from trauma is NOT tell them things or say you wish you hadn't told them something! It makes it harder for them to trust you.

You don't tell someone who is scared for a loved one "don't start" when they turn to you for emotional support! I'm tired of having to hide how I'm feeling!
