Trauma

Hiding in my closet.

I’ve cried so much today.

This afternoon I had a panic attack and hid in my closet. My heart was beating rapidly, I couldn’t catch my breath, I was shaking and sweating. I alternated between feeling afraid, and feeling like I was detached from my body and watching it happen to me.

I don’t choose when my trauma activates me.

Don’t you think if I had the choice, I would choose to bypass all of this anguish?


Be well, be kind, keep going. xo Cassie
