Recognizing a Mentally Abused Brain

I was mentally and physically abused (got some terifying scars all over my body) for 4 years. Personally i think the healing is just utter bullshit for a lot of people. You don't ever heal truly heal from having the faith in mankind tortured out of you.

Well, unless you count becoming fully numb "healing". That's the only thing that got me over most of the points in the graphic, because despite my best efforts for decades, i simply can't give a fuck anymore. I'm a deeply scarred individual (literally) and i can't pretend anymore. I'm not being an asshole about it either, but i won't apologize or hide my feelings anymore. The latter is actually kind of funny, because so much of life is people pretending to feel differently than they do. People really don't expect you to be honest all the time.
