On Writing Trauma

This is more of a personal opinion post, but I always prefer stories involving trauma to be about healing said trauma in the end.

Angst is a wonderful dramatic tool, but especially to the younger writers out there, remember that your writing says something about you as a person. The writer always leaks themself into the writing, the artist always leaks into the art. If your characters are always stuck in pain, agony, death, look at yourself: are you the one that's stuck?

I'm not saying to make all stories light and rainbow filled. I myself use trauma and pain in my writing. But your message must poke through: Is trauma a spectacle that is always preset? Or is it a momentary period that will bring greater meaning in the story (or in your life) in the future to come?

My characters have PTSD nightmares. My characters have parental trauma. My characters have unhealthy attachment issues. My characters mask to hide the damage inside. But all of it is in the work so that people that have the same problems can be seen. My characters will talk about the nightmares and realize that they can feel understood and seen. My characters will find solace in the fact that the other characters also have hard family dynamics. My characters will learn to heal and love in healthy ways.

Your writing is a message. For those that want to hear it, they can heal parts of themselves through it. Pain and trauma healed is one of the most fulfilling experiences in the world, and your art can spread that message.

guy i vaguely know in class impromptu invited me to join the conga line of Feliz Navidad and like. as people we are quite different. as for worldviews, again, quite different. but in that moment, my rainbow ring standing out against his white shirt as I joined the line behind him, we were the same. just two people excited to sing Feliz Navidad and march around an auditorium with a bunch of Spanish speakers

Merry Christmas y'all. Feliz Navidad. We're all people in the end.

adding to the list:

- my guy, my lads, fellas, bromide, gurl/girl, babygirl, queen, king, honey baby darling sweetie, homie

- (I'm also aware of broski and "my [noun] in [noun]". Of the latter my roommate's favorite currently is "my sister in girl" but I often use "my brother in [whatever's applicable to the moment]")

Btw if I call u bro, brother, dude, or man I mean it all gender neutrally lol that is just how I speak im not actually calling u that

my close friend, back when we still only knew each other for a handful of weeks, would see me walk in and be like "why is that outfit so just. on brand for you." and every time she was one hundred percent accurate. she had a *radar* I'm telling ya

learned I kept a knife on me one day, when I was sleepy and a mutual friend asked me where it was and I mumbled "'s in my boot," and that friend said, "yeah that's incredibly on-brand for you"

few days later saw me with a harmonica in my front pocket and, again, "again you are on-brand today"

girl you've known me for less time than most people I love and you just. pegged me. for exactly who I am. because yes, these outfits are handpicked, and yes, I am the kinda queer fella that keeps a laser pointer in my backpack and would give you a stupid crazy crooked grin right before doing the most unhinged thing for the bit, and somehow you could tell without knowing me at all.

Without knowing me at all, you know me so much more than most people who've had my entire life to figure me out.

so like prev said. good to know i exist and have a vibe. so good to know i exist and have a vibe in the exact way you knew

i love when ppl say “that’s so you” it feels good to know i exist and have a vibe
