hi andy! love reading your medium posts because of how raw your writings are. there's something interest me tho when you address physical abuse (i'm very sorry for what happened to you) i want to ask... how do you deal with it now? esp the triggers, trauma and maybe ptsd? you can ignore this if its too personal for you to answer btw! just want to say, pls be healthy and happy always!!!!
It is fine, and thank you for liking my writings on medium as well! I honestly wasn't expecting anyone would bother to read that much or even like them.
As for your query.. it happened a very long time ago and even though I have made peace with the whole situation and even the person who did it, there are times when some stuff still triggers me: if they are something that I see then I simply look away, and if it is something I hear then I just cover my ears. It sounds easier said than done, but so far they have helped, and I often avoid some situations where there will be too much stuff that might trigger me as well.
This shaped me to be someone who loathed people who are abusive, whether physically, emotionally, or even verbally especially towards those who did nothing wrong—since there are times violence came out from me in certain situations but NEVER ever towards innocent people, I promise, and I just cannot tolerate their asses at all.
