Why were you worried about me? I don't feel okay and I don't feel not okay. I don't know what I feel. There's a chronic state of angst running thru my veins. But, what else is new, right?

Yeah, I was like in a trance when I tweeted those things. Thank you so much for your concern. I don't feel like I should burden you with my problems when you have enough of your own. I love talking to you tho. We talk for hours but it goes by so fast. Amazing

Bless you, Sarah. You are my antinatalist soul mate. Those tweets are simply my past. They actually happened. Nothing can be done to help it. It is shocking, though, that parents can be so oblivious to their own child's pain and suffering, isn't it?

I cannot say it any better, my lady. I am a walking, talking wound. A wound time can't erase. I've spent my whole life trying to recover something from my childhood that, in retrospect, probably never existed. Chasing a phantasm.

True that. But what they did to me wasn't accidental. It was downright neglect. Denying a child dental care when their face is swollen in pain and agony... I would not do that even to someone else's child, much less my own... I wouldn't do that to a pet...

The beatings, the shaming, the guilting, that they laid on me from early childhood on up had me so conflicted and fucked up, I have yet to unravel it. Stockholm Syndrome. Plus, I guess I'm just fuckin weak. I regret I didn't kill them and burn the house down.
