Sharing Our Innermost Thoughts

I’m not allowed to use makeup.

it was kinda a joke lmao bc idk if you’re talking abt physical or emotional scars yk

Emotional

well then makeup wouldn’t work, but still just fake it till ya make it, pretend like it’s healed and eventually it will. also be spiteful to all those who say you can’t do anything and prove them wrong

I really want to be spiteful to my mother.

then do it girl! you got this :)

Problem is, I don’t want to be badly hurt.

well which is gonna hurt more, not standing up for yourself or getting what you need and want to feel better and whole?

I don’t know, standing up for myself hasn’t gotten me anywhere.

I want to do it, but I’m too scared to.

I have been, but she makes threats when I do

I’m too wimpy and scared to try again

trust me, as someone that has had to stand up repeatedly and get nowhere, eventually something will give and things will change. just remember your mother and her values don’t define who you are

Sometimes, I wish I would not care that I’d get hurt or possibly lose my home if I tell her how I feel.

Or get threatened

yea i know how it feels, but sometimes you have to take the risks to survive and get the things that will make your life better

A lot of the time, I can’t say anything back because I don’t have anything to say until it’s too late.

well channel your inner bad girl and say something sassy and walk away

Walk away as in…?

like literally walk away, either to your room or outside and go somewhere else

I wish I had somewhere else to go

you could just go for a walk around your neighborhood

I know

but what if I don’t want to go back?

well i mean unless you have someone else to live with or have a place to stay i think you would have to, which i know sucks but if that’s what you have to do that’s what ya gotta do yk

Yeah…😞

yea i’m sorry that your home life is so bad 😓
