When you live with a narcissistic abuser, even when a beloved dog dies, you become the strong one. She'll wail and scream. Understandable. She'll weep and moan. Also understandable. But if you do, even as a child surviving a bombing, you are told to shut up and stop being so emotional. So you do... you shut up all your emotional range and get the shit done. Call the cremation services, prepare the body, clean the spot where dearest doggo died, tell all the relevant people, comfort them, etc. etc.
It's here the narcissist will soak up all the attention and still have the audacity to ask, "How do you do it?"
She means how do you not freak out and lose your head? How do you keep all your emotions in check even when your father, your friend, your aunt, your kitty die? Even as a 7-year-old girl? How can you not be emotional? The answer is really simple; long ago you realized that your feelings never matter. So you push them aside. Even if you're furious, distraught, or anxious, it doesn't matter. And it never will.
Rose Mommy ® @wei_ying Your feelings do matter though. I apologize Yuu-chan for stepping in and I would think you probably won't or don't believe your feelings matter no matter who could or would tell you. But...even if you didn't believe me now or ever, it doesn't stop the truth of the matter being that your feelings have and will always matter. I'm sorry you've had to grow up with someone who treated those precious feelings otherwise, but every feeling you have felt and will feel IS important. All the hurt, sadness, anger and rage from incidents past and present are valid feelings. I hope despite all the pain you've been through and are going through doesn't stop you from ever simply trying to express your feelings now and in the future, cause you are precious and stronger than you know. I'm just sorry you had to be put through such circumstances (by someone who's supposed to family or close to you) to show the kind of resilience you can have. ❤️
yuuzora @yuuzora Yeah, I understand that's the logical course. Maybe it's that I don't really know how to emote anymore? Funny that I think writing this out is a way of lashing out. Maybe even starved for validation? So I should thank you for hearing me out.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This one is so used to either being non-existent or the target of blame, so attention is not something I tend to like having. Since it is abuse, and this one is aware it is, I think lashing out is a way to get my story out there. Maybe as a chance there'll be an opportunity to escape? Generally I would write this out and just not post it, but I decided to here. Honestly it's kinda like a safe space. lololol. So sad. XD-----------------------------------------------------------------
I do appreciate your kindness. I will try to get better about all this.
Rose Mommy ® @wei_ying Such things take one step at a time. I think writing is especially a great way to get your feelings out when you feel you can't say anything or are working on how to put things, I have done it before with my twin when I didn't know how to explain to here out loud what I felt-----------------------------------------------------------------I don't think it's sad that you have a safe space, even if said safe space is somewhere or something you normally wouldn't expect. And as I said before writing can be a very useful means of escape, and if it helps you get those feelings out without harming yourself or others, well, I think that's a win to me. And try not to worry too much about writing or posting your feelings here, after all, tons have done it as well including me and that's perfectly normal and fine ^^.-----------------------------------------------------------------Take your time to heal and get better, change won't happen overnight and with the amount of trauma and abuse you've suffered it honestly will probably take longer, and that IS perfectly fine. I know you know baby steps are important for things like this and I hope you can be kind to yourself as you figure things out ^-^

Rose Mommy ® @wei_ying I've never watched it myself XD
yuuzora @yuuzora It's a fun one when you feel like being lofi but still having a good time. It never takes itself too seriously(almost to a flaw) and Hideyaki Sorachi is well, he's a gorilla, os... XD
Rose Mommy ® @wei_ying Hey, I think I can handle an anime that doesn't take itself too seriously XD. I do horrible with intense angst XD

Truth is part of it is acceptance. Generally I wouldn't care what others thought of me, but since this piece of myself has been a source of trauma since I can remember, it hits differently. Accusations of racism, being excluded from important events like Christmas and St. Patrick's Day, or Obon and Lunar New Year, etc. In this case just being stared down just reminds me of all that. I tried not to dwell on it but I couldn't get it out of my head. Which is why I wrote it out. Generally no one reads my profile, so I usually just write what I'm thinking. I'm sorry to have inconvenience you with my rantings.

Greetings, greetings... It seems like you're trying to please others in order to get acceptance. Is that the right way to go? Isn't it better to please yourself and have others accept who you are? If they can't do that, why are you even making the attempt?

One of the hardest things about being 'part white' is getting glared at by some Chinese people because I'm wearing a wei-ji(era) hanfu I got as a gift last year. No matter if you're standing in a room of all Asian or all white, you're never good enough to sit with either. So you stay standing and hope you can just live your life in peace. It hurts in a place I don't think we talk about enough.

Just a personal bias but Elder Scrolls. Years and years of lore to go through and discover.
Which game would you guys say has the best lore?

I know FNAF might get blown up but if you really think about it, what game would you say has the most captivating lore. Like for example, the Resident Evil franchise is really having me dig into it's history, and with Undertale, each character seems to have their own backstory you can look into.
Idk, just wanna hear some thoughts

This is a project using fossils and modern relatives to get an idea of how dinosaurs may have sounded. The velociraptor sounds cute.

I would have totally kept a velociraptor as a pet.
