From the first self awareness
To the first suppressed breath
To the first dissociation
It's authenticity or death
Mid twenties
panic attacks
hearing voices
figuring out sources
Doctors,
medications,
therapists,
treatments
Naming the condition
trauma dissociations
emotional and psychological manipulations
of a very young child
Not my words,
but great relief
To know what's wrong
Trauma dissociations
Reintegrations
Living with conditions
It's authenticity or death
when authenticity is suppressed
the wound is not visible
but when you split a personality
and lock it in a closet
one day it will escape
and if not acknowledged
not listened to
attempt to repress
it may quite end in death
Self harm, suicidal ideation
a mess of thoughts a short of breath
A choice, or not, an eventual decision
acknowledgement, acceptance
It's authenticity or death.
