I get triggered so often by atmosphere. It’s something I can’t control and sometimes it’s such a surprise because they don’t happen often. Reminding myself that I’m no longer in that situation or with my abuser helps. Acknowledging that pain and hurt is also important because my abuser didn’t let me feel those feelings. The shower was my only place I felt safe to feel it all. #domesticviolenceawareness #domesticviolencesurvivor
