you are worthy of love that doesn't hurt you. (love isn't meant to hurt you.)
It’s #PTSD Awareness Month and today we’d like to discuss some of the differences between PTSD and C-PTSD.
#CPTSD stands for Complex-PTSD, and the main difference is that PTSD is usually triggered by a single event and can occur at any age, while C-PTSD is typically rooted in childhood and is triggered by several traumatic events that go on for a long period of time (usually years).
Here are a few differences & symptoms.

“But now we must pick up every piece
Of the life we used to love
Just to keep ourselves
At least enough to carry on”
–Neutral Milk Hotel (Holland, 1945)
Sure, other platforms may call them “followers” too, but only Tumblr can capture the feel of a faceless crowd of huddled masses trailing after you about a city block’s distance away, picking up pages of your diary or scrawlings that you drop on the ground as you walk along. Some of these people have been there for years. Some only joined the crowd last week. Collectively, the crowd is ancient and ageless. Who are they? What do they want from you? Nobody knows. Walk a little faster.
life really is just like. you meet people you love them and then you lose them and you never see them again. and it's inevitable and it happens to everyone and there's nothing you can do about it
