Let's talk

Hi, I’m looking for a safe space where I can talk openly about trauma and be around people who really get it. I grew up in a very difficult home — with emotional neglect, abuse, and people who never talked about anything real. I’m trying to set boundaries now, especially with my mom, but it’s hard because I still love her. I often feel isolated and I want to be more around people who I can be honest with — people who’ve been through heavy things too. I just want to feel seen.

Hi, I don't know if this counts because I have no memory of what happend and I don't have any "proof" more than a scar in my intimate area and a lot of feelings from that but I am also looking for a safe space where I can be seen seriusly and just talk with other people that understand complicated feelings because they felt and lived really difficult things. I also understand that complicated feeling when you love someone that hurts or hurted you, in my case, it is my mother that says things that hurt my feelings like "you are better off dead" or like "I think you like being treated that way" when you are not feeling good. You can talk with me whenever you like, I know it can feel difficult to set new boundaries after living heavy things, specialy abuse.

I don't think we can talk privately in this app. We can talk in a different app if you want or we can continue talking here. I'd really want to talk too.

Hi, I am also looking for someone to talk with who has these problems at home. I also have problems with my mom and there has been some *** over me the last couple of years. Maybe we can help each other out?

@purpleHuman2602

it can me hard to find people who “get it” when it comes to talking about personal traumas that we have experienced growing up in tough family situations. I myself have experienced a significant amount of childhood trauma that includes abuse, neglect and emotional abuse. Setting boundaries is extremely hard to do. I’ve always said parents can do the worst things to their kids and their kids will still love them. You are seen here. Everything you feel is valid. There is no right or wrong way to set boundaries with your mom but I’m here if you ever need a sounding board. Sending positive vibes your way!
