The adrenaline is going away...

I didn't have numbers secured so "two" as to, too & part of the infinitive like "to run. To hide," but also because in YEAR TWO, we discussed validation & this person never brought it up again, but realization they were using every word/phrase/mantra/intellectual way to understand self in these emotional ways to then remove consent to trigger & then can yell about crying daily. This is their playbook! The linear storytelling is this relationship. 

AM LISTENING & it's the 1, 2, 3 (parents who are bullying their kids) that connects to these memories. 3 families & the connective thread was not wanting their kids (admitting it!) so kids & grown-ups need to feel wanted.
