One of the most misunderstood things about trauma is that survivors are often just as tired of carrying it as anyone is of hearing about it.

Many would gladly choose not to relive it through intrusive thoughts, sleepless nights, physical symptoms, or the ways it can affect relationships.

Trauma is not something people hold onto because they want to. It's something they are working hard to heal from.

If this is part of your experience, please know that your exhaustion is valid, and you deserve compassion for the weight you've been carrying.
