I feel my exposure to various forms and degrees of trauma is ABSOLUTELY why my brain and "systems" are cactus.

Period.

Are there people in this sub who disagree -- I would like to hear from you.... (crickets?)

Where I sit 6 months post Dx:

1. Accepting my brain is cactus
2. Accepting my trauma was not and never will be my fault
3. Accepting responsibility for taking WAYYYYY better care of my body, mind, spirit, brain... and finally...
4. Accepting I can't discuss this / my diagnosis with people who "deny" my right to "claim" the trauma in the first place because IT GIVES ME MORE FUCKING TRAUMA

Would love some feedback on this sentiment fellow warriors. Am I getting somewhere?

Thank you.
