Your illness does not define you. It's your resolve to recover that does.
Have you ever writhed in your own intrusive thoughts
What Are Intrusive Thoughts? Intrusive thoughts are spontaneous and involuntary mental images, ideas, or impulses that intrude upon our consciousness without warning or invitation. They can take many forms, ranging from fleeting worries and doubts to disturbing or taboo thoughts. While everyone experiences intrusive thoughts from time to time, they can become problematic when they persistently disrupt our peace of mind and interfere with our daily functioning.

A Life for a Life. Content Warning.
My mother planted her voice deep inside my mind. A voice so obnoxious and strident that my autonomy collapsed into a dark corner. She taught me that love was synonymous with abusive control. She mentally imprisoned me to behave only in ways that appeased her. Her love, kindness, and care would vanish when I stepped out of line. Poof! Gone in a cloud of her cigarette smoke. For thirty years, I was chained to her every desire. Each decision I made, person I dated, or friend I had was all for her approval, her favor, her love. In her eyes, if I truly loved her, I would live my life for her. A life that she never got to live. A life that was stolen from her.

Bluntly, emotional trauma stems from any situation that makes us, and other mammalian species, think that we are in danger.
