    Your brain is damaged from extensive childhood trauma (like so many others including me).

    Medications. They are awful, it’s true. You’ll probably have to go through a few different kinds, but when it works you’ll know immediately. It’s like flipping a light switch.

    Like all meds, there are good and bad side effects, nothing in life is free. But, I can tell you, from one very damaged individual to another, they can provide you some relief for a time. That’s really the very best you can hope for. If you ever want a break from the horror, try it, friend.

    I get refusing to take them though, 100%. But every one has their limitations.

      It’s a scar like any other sometimes it itches and sometimes it burns but most of the time it’s just a bit of tightness of flesh. Meds don’t work since they either interact badly with the autism, the trauma, or my inate drug resistance, there was one drug I was prescribed as a kid which just didn’t work and the dosage that wouldve been required would’ve resulted in an OD.

      I’ve made a sort of peace if my hatred starts to burn hot enough I disconnect put on some Credence and ride my motorcycle. Used to be my truck but gas is expensive so now it’s a motorcycle.
