"10/10 already
"In childhood, my own flight response got channeled into acquiring academic skills for which the outside world rewarded me. But the benefit of these rewards never penetrated my toxic shame enough to allow me to feel that I was a worthwhile person."
"the child is both abused for emoting and is, at the same time, abused by her caretaker's toxic emotional expression"" — Aug 29, 2026 06:39AM
