Feeling the impulse to agree to things purely to keep the peace is a trauma response. Acting on that consistently and at the expense of your own wellbeing becomes a way you violate your own boundaries.

Feeling the need to be busy all the time is a trauma response and fear-based distraction from what you'd be forced to acknowledge and feel if you slowed down.
#idea from Stained Glass
"a curse where we remember the pain far longer than the love."
what a terrifying thing it is, to merely be yourself.
where sometimes you don't want to live but you won't make the effort to die. You don't want to talk to anyone but you feel very lonely. It's where you wake up in the morning and simply wait for the night to come.
Stay away from people who think you're arguing every time you try to express yourself.
when you know you cannot change things by loving them harder.
#hurt&tramatized
I stopped explaining myself when I realized people only understand from their level of perception.
and I hate how you made me question myself when the problem was you all along.
