Ravenous thoughts appear in my headspace.

Sometimes with things that I said some time ago that were triggering or said in a way that was quite blunt or fierce.

Sometimes it was a dignified response and other times it was deeply embedded in profanity.

Nonetheless, these thoughts appear from time to time in my head.

Sometimes when I am in my own space, I script what I truly wanted to say in that moment but I know it couldn’t be said in that situation.

Nonetheless, this is the reality of traumatic triggers in myself as a neurodivergent person.

It’s a reality that many of my neurodivergent commrades often face.

The system is slowly recognizing how embedded trauma is within not only the neurodivergent community but across the entire mental health realm.

It’s taken a long time to get where we are and I am making strides, but I and the world still has a long day to go.

Day by day. Sometimes hour by hour.

We will get there.

In our own time. In our own way .
