Breaking the fourth wall is the ultimate level of dissociating. It's an out of body experience that abandons immersion in the world of the story for character & audience. It's an abandoning of oneself to explain & justify our own existence. It's a begging for relief. Tragicomedy

Someone said we must turn off our empathy for our abusers. I don't think so. I think we need to refocus our empathy on ourselves and their other targets. We need to dream bigger while being willing to build that world together. It's much more fulfilling than just wishing them ill

Turns out being emotionally stretched is just resisting growth. Damn. I meant physically!

You seem to think my heart bleeds
involuntarily
I don't resist the tears that well
at the suffering of others
I choose this
because I choose love
I choose to be who I needed
When I had no one
if that makes me weak
Then consider me the weakest lifeform ever to grace the earth ❤️🔥

I left someone like my character named Chance. He's the hero but he's terrified. He falls in love with a girl in his magic sword. He refuses to fight. He hides & drags his heels. He's irrationally afraid of hats. I trapped myself in a sword for him & then welded myself for us 💔

Do you think Prometheus eventually got used to the pain? If the Greeks believed the liver was the seat of all emotions then wouldn't he be numbed? He wouldn't feel anxious because his emotions were removed. It's effectively like total dissociation. He might not even remember it

It was always more of a performative and unhinged fan fiction about the psychology of right wing figures, wasn't it? She poured milk over a cardboard cutout of grifter who just agreed to debate 20 Atheists as 1 Christian & refused to confirm if he was Christian or not. Theatric!

I think about you, my friend, more than I will ever be able to express. The spell, whatever the cause, that keeps me silent is no one's fault but I do not blame you for disbelief. You cannot check my heart out of the library for casual perusing and I seldom read from it aloud ❤️🩹

You wanted me to play a role but to improvise the script. Each correction should be eagerly embraced, oh & there were so many, without ever expressing any hint of fatigue or resisting restriction. But your direction was uninspired, grotesque, & I wish I'd rejected the role sooner

I was too quiet.
Too clever.
Too obedient.
Too strange.
Too capable.
Too tempting.
Too insightful.
Too much yet never enough.
But I never believed them. I wasn't to their taste but that didn't mean I wasn't exquisite. But I believed that they were incapable of appreciating me ❤️🩹

Something has been broken. It clatters around inside. It still works, I can wind it up, but the tune is somehow unfamiliar now. There's no way to open it to discover the broken piece and reconnect it again. If I hold still perhaps I won't notice...the something that broke

If you're still suppressing that feeling in your chest, tightening your throat to resist screaming, then why? What are you saving your voice for? I suggest you speak up before they cut off our tongues

They're not a snack as in a small meal that temporarily satisfies hunger between more substantial meals. No. Snack as in their present in my life sustains me on a deep level like nourishment that strengthens my bones, feeds my rushing blood, and makes my skin glow with life ❤️🔥

It was hard for me to pay attention to the sitcom scenes because I was much more invested in the drama series style scenes. Now it feels like my memory of living in the USA is fading all the traumatic parts which means erasing an entire person - my own "Kevin". I walked away ❤️🩹
Finished the show (confirmed only 2 seasons) & I absolutely recommend it. From the character growth to the way dysfunction is shown in interpersonal relationships across work, platonic, & romantic connections is so well done. The end was so satisfying too. Divorce saved my life ❤️🩹
I started watching Kevin Can F**k Himself. It feels like such an accurate portrayal of coercive control. The way he isolates her, belittles her, takes everything from her, it all feels so familiar. When I moved to the US I always felt I was living inside a TV show. It's this. ❤️🩹
