I remember seeing memes like this a bunch back when I used reddit, and being a bit confused about what to make of them, because on the one hand the showcased feelings are usually quite relatable to me, but on the other I feel pretty confident that I didn’t suffer abuse as a kid and if anything had a pretty good childhood compared to most people I know.
I’ve just ended up with a sort of “constantly worry about everything while not seeing to know how to function in situations that I feel I should know how handle” out of a combination of anxiety disorders and ASD instead, among others. I’m never sure if I should feel lucky to not go through that kind of childhood trauma or unlucky that my brain apparently has ended up functioning in such a manner regardless. Somehow I can think of a way that either one of those feelings could be disrespectful to someone that did go through it all and that just makes my confusion worse.
Basically everything I post was stolen off reddit a couple years ago because I am deeply uncreative and boring. So that’s probably why it looks familiar.
But yeah, it came from r/trollcoping where they have a disclaimer that none of these are cries for help or targeting anyone. it’s just people with mental illness using humor to vent. I saved it because it because I saw myself in it. I’m sorry if anyone feels disrespected, I’m feeling out fediverse as I go and will post different memes based on the kind of feedback I see
Oh I wasn’t trying to say you were disrespecting anyone, I was just idly commenting on how it’s the kind of situation that, since it relates to things other people can be touchy about and because I don’t know how to feel about it, my brain unhelpfuly comes up with plausible (to me) arguments for how all possible feelings I might get disrespect someone, therefore adding to my confusion. That was more thinking out loud on my part as it were.
