it's the worst shit. even now, well into adulthood, when I'm injured or something, I'm still supposed to rely on my mom. I don't have one of those.
I tried explaining it to a doctor once. I showed him some of the scars. just in one ear and out the other.
I feel like the reliance on 'family' is a way to dismantle any solidarity or any hint of a society, any kind of broad social support. I feel like it's a whole thing.
For what it's worth it really does get better. It just takes time.
like i said; well into adulthood. my twenties are firmly behind me. I think the time parts are going to do what they're going to do. the biggest pain in my ass now is places where 'society' is supposed to just be a thing that flat out does not exist for me.
