she then went on to be rly horrible after i told her im rly triggered by this and she was making fun of my mum not being here anymore and im just sat here in a bawl of mess bc im rly upset abt this.
I bottled stuff up for so long and went emotionally numb because for me, it was easier than letting myself feel. You are stunningly brave for having the courage to let yourself feel and cry, and i know how scary it is to do that.
I hold on myself because I desperately hope things will get better in the future. I know it's not much consilation now, but things can improve. And for what it's worth, we're here for you, to talk whenever you want to, and to remind you about how great of a person you are. There's always hope things get better, it's just hard to see at times.
so basically i posted a thread today about relationships/family and ive been thinking. who would honestly want to be in a relationship with me? its not that im ugly dont get me wrong. its just that i have cerebral palsy and its clearly visible if you looked at me. i use a kaye walker to walk around (if you dont know what that is i recommend you search it up) and my hips make me walk from side to side. i dont sway necessarily and it doesnt hurt when i walk but its noticeable. my posture is also not straight. i try to walk with a straight back but most of the time i just slouch whilst walking. i would get a picture of me walking but i dont think i can get one on my computer and edit it out to cover my face. ive also had people gossiping about me in the past that i look like a witch which is really cruel especially because i cant do anything about my disability other than some physio and maybe surgery. but theres no cure for cerebral palsy so surgery doesnt help me much in the long term. ive had two major surgeries in my life to do with my cerebral palsy, once when i was 8 and once when i was 15. i have two scars on the back of my legs because of it. ive also had another surgery when i was about 6 but i cant remember what it was about. it was probably just a minor surgery. anyways back to my point. would anyone want to willingly be in any sort of romantic, let alone sexual relationship with me? i feel like if i were to go on one of those dating contests or shows id be chosen last because of the way that i look. i feel like someone would rather choose an abled bodied person than me.
i know it might seem like rn that noone would want to be in a relationship with you but there is a person out there for you. they always say ‘ there’s plenty of fish in the sea’ youre your own unique person and if someone can’t see how amazing you are then that’s on them! but youre an amazing person and i honestly believe that there is someone out there for you. i know im not making sense but i just wanted to reply to you bc you deserve to be heard and listened to.
thank you @eylah
The fact is, just because the rest of the world has failed you, it doesn't mean that you deserved to be failed. Just because the rest o the world never showed you love, it doesn't mean you don't deserve it. You deserve to be loved for who you are, because who you are is lovely. Honestly. You are making perfect sense eylah. And you really don't know how impactful you saying your proud of me is. Even in the midst of a panic attack, you are still being so kind to others.
Now, about the panic attack, are you feeling okay right now? Breathing good and everything? Sorry i took a while, i didn't see this message till i got back.
@eylah i hope so too. You deserve a good rest and a good night my friend
just got rly bad chest pain rn bc i always get it when i have a panic attack. idk why i can’t calm down rn but i just think i rly have ovehwlmed myself. i feel scared abt getting close to ppl and them saying they love me scares me yk?
your words are so important to me and they rly are melting my heart thankyou.
i care abt you all here at the mix. i know what it feels like to have noone fighting your corner, having anyone who cares abt you etc. i know what it feels like and i am going to keep supporting you all
And, i think i know what your talking about about being scared of getting close to people and have them say that, but eylah, you do deserve to be told i love you, by me, everyone on the mix, and by everybody in real life cause of how kind you are. I'm speaking the honest truth here. You have all of us in your corner now, and i can say i'm the stubborn type who's not going anywhere. Sending you all the virtual hugs that can humanly be given, cause you deserve them.
those words mean the world to me
this panic attack seems to be going on for a very long time and its rly doing my head in bc i have chest pain and im struggling to breathe.
