for six months after i had been sexually assaulted- i did not tell my family what happened. i didn't want to. part of me was screaming to let it out- but part of me also wanted to deny that it had even happened at all.
my body itself could not deny that i had been assaulted. i started to experience racing thoughts, extreme anxiety, a constant...

Creative Writing and PTSD
Daddy's Game

a poem published in Frigg Magazine by me
DADDY'S GAME
I imagine you must've shut
yourself off somehow--the way
you'd eventually teach me to do--
before you entered my room
like a king's shadow
I hear the scrape of your jeans
your hands hot and big like swings;
I'm young so I love you. I do as you say.
You blow smoke in my...

Don't know how to feel anything anymore
One day of peace please

I prefer nights my mind is empty and I sleep peacefully. I keep praying the days, weeks, months, yrs that go by will eventually omit the memories from my mind. But they follow me through relationships ruining my most simplest ambitions. Building walls around me instead of bridges between me and those who love me. I just want to be able to feel...

Rape & Recovery
So Utterly Alone

I'm so tired of being alone. I still talk to David. I love him. He is unavailable at this time. I will not elaborate. I cannot move on. I have tried. I've dated but nothing has progressed past a couple dinners out. Every time I hear from him, it is as if the sun just sprang forth. I dream of him. I crave him. We haven't seen each other...

Random musings from my mind at sporatic intervals.
If life’s problems are lessons

If life’s problems are lessons, there are things I would rather not know. People say that I should live without looking back, but I could only live without regret it if I was never taught those lessons. And what if the lessons they teach are the wrong ones? Who decided that our circumstances are the teachers we need?
What happens in your life...

thoughts that just keep pouring
Grandpa's gone

I've been scared of this happening for 10 years or longer. My mother is so unstable as it is, losing her father can only make her more so. He's been supporting her financially for the last thirty years. It has been a looming disaster, and I have been waiting, fearing this time for soo long. And it's happening now. And I'm so sad to...

personal thoughts and feelings
In a single moment!

I'm a mess.
I'm up, I'm down.
Happy and Sad,
Scared and Angry.
Crying, Manic
Tense then relaxed.
Words and feelings whirling and swirling around in my head.
Everything scrambled and not making sense.
I want to be around people, but only so I don't feel alone.
I don't want to talk, I only want to listen,
I want to feel...

Seanna's Life
Experiences of a destructing Relationship
this hell called Survivorhood. pppppfffffttt

Why won't he leave me alone? I don't want to live in my memories anymore. I have a right to live my life like a normal person without threat or fear. He won't let that happen. Why must he send me periodic warnings to keep quiet. That's what the vandalism was I believe. A warning to quit talking. Or a warning to never tell....

From Mensa to Mental
Musings from a 40 year old (sort of) virgin
Family and work life

I used to be a full time chemistry teacher. I taught other things too – Bio, chem, physics, geometry, environmental science. I taught bilingual Spanish sections of chemistry and geometry. I would tutor kids after school in whatever subject they needed. I also did ACT/SAT prep classes after school. I started a robotics team at my last school....

I'm not always sure why, but I. Kept. Going.
Entry 1

Today was a good day among the river of stress I am feeling. I played dodge ball and it was quite amazing. We had various people come in and out of our lives today. Neighbors, friends, family, soccer team members. All playing their part in our day as we took the time to be children. We took a minute and enjoyed our lives and our laughs and each...

Feeling like a failure

Before becoming pregnant with my second child & right around the time when I had gotten engaged to my husband I decided to put my career on hold to have more time to spend focusing on important things I'd had to neglect for a really long time. When I met my husband he had a stable job & investments and could comfortably provide for me...

husband issues
i guess its getting better?

I guess I am getting better. If better means I am still scared.
If better means I still have nightmares.
If better means I still have triggers and flashbacks
and tears that I feel I should not shed.
I guess life is getting better if that means
we avoid talking about what happened to me
in fear of me hiding in a dark lonely corner
sulking my...

How did this happen again? (Trigger warning)

How did this happen to me again?
I'm sitting here, still shaking. I barely slept last night. When I awoke, there wasn't even that blissful moment between waking and sleeping where I didn't remember. I remembered the moment I was violently jerked awake. And while the details were still vague and blurry in that early morning, I...

I just need to get it out.
You

I miss your lips.
I miss your touch.
I miss everything that is male and firm and strong about you.
I miss being in your arms.
Protected.
I'm tired.
I get that I need to learn to live on my own.
But I miss your strength.
I miss you.

I want to run in fields, paint the kitchen and love someone...

I have been recently somewhat obsessed with Imogen Heap's "First Train Home" particularly the line "I want to run in fields paint the kitchen and love someone, but I can't do any of that here can I?" And altough I feel she is relating that to a casual or unstable relationship, I feel that is how I feel towards my...

My Story
Money, Money, Money

I often wonder if my uncle trying to pay me when I was eight has given me a wired complex about it. I hate money, it makes me uncomfortable to be around it, or even more so for others trying to give it to me... I understand the need for it within social means, I understand some things about it, but I don't understand the materialistic pull the...

Frustrated!

I don't know where to start. After talking with my mother last week about the sexual abuse I suffered as I child my emotions turned to anger. I have spent the last 15 years trying to forget the years of bullying and harassment I endured only to find out that my parents have been hiding this information from me. Had I not accidentally...

My Life and My thoughts
death and suicide

I often think about suicide,
As if somehow itd mean
Something, as if somehow
Id bring a stop to the pain
The trials the challenges,
Of life what it brings
I think about being gone and people
Reading what I tried to explain,
The rapes the pain that wont go away
The tears that would stop,
Sheets and pillow cases that would
Dry, I wonder if then...
