thamnqueue 🙏✨ this is really nice for me to read rn, really apreciate it.
it was easy to read all the glazing and sweet compliments, but im pretty weird and i was not sure how to explain myself or respond to certain other comments.
i also have trauma related to being bullied by cishet guys and i was having unreasonable strong reactions to commemts that were saying they were from cishet guys. I want to believe in allies and i dont want to judge people but i am definately pretty damaged and messy and was scared of embaressing myself or being unhinged and making people hate me.
Even thirty years on, I carry some trauma from my teenage years. You just stick to your pace, your comfort levels. The rest of us can be patient as you grow and bloom.
Imo, that’s the perfect reason to delete a post. Lemmy and piefed don’t yet have a way to temporarily turn them off, so deleting just makes sense.
Mind you, anyone can delete any post they make for any reason, I’m just saying that being overwhelmed is a damn good one.
Here’s hoping you recover from the response flood and feel comfy enough to post again later :)

I totally get it.
