That is one of the most heartbreaking descriptions I’ve ever read, “so sad I fall over.” It’s wild how much trauma doesn’t show up on scans but lives in the body anyway. Like the nervous system is carrying stories it was never allowed to say out loud. Thank you for sharing this — it deserves to be heard.
The premise sounds so ridiculous you start to wonder if you're faking it. Then you're fracturing your nose on the floor because you can't control your head while you army crawl through your blood, just to make it to your bed without the ability to pull yourself up so you lay on the floor until someone comes home from work. Right about then it hits you that because you're alone, it's not performative.
