I think this should be a self-evident truth: Parents are responsible for raising their children. Any mistakes the parent makes in raising children is on the parent, not the child. Yet, trauma victims tend to spend a lifetime blaming themselves for not fixing their parents! #CPTSD
My wife's biggest mistake is not believing me or my siblings. She is quick to side with her siblings with anything their parents may have done wrong. I think this is normal, actually. Some people don't see all the pain underneath, so they don't believe it exists. #CPTSD
In other words, you are ON YOUR OWN . . . you can't even always count on a kind partner to understand. Perhaps, your siblings, or someone else close to you. But, no guarantees. Ultimately, you are on your own. If #actuallyautistic, #ADHD, etc. this is VERY hard. #CPTSD
