      My DNA donors like to insist that they did “so many nice things” for me as a kid… Funny thing though, i only seem to remember the “Dad’s in a bad mood” beatings, the “you don’t need glasses, you’re just being dramatic” gaslighting to keep me blind for my first 17 years.

      There’s more, but enough trauma dumping for today

          The only thing i truly miss about Reddit was Doom scrolling the raised by narcissists sub
