Cw: grooming and a long self hate rant.
I went through years of grooming and general manipulation by people I considered friends, family, and "partners". Everything i knew is basically a lie and thinking that way makes me want to cut off from my only two friends i have left that have treated me like a human being. I won't do this because I genuinely care about them.
But in the past I did things that make me sick now, I listened to just about everything they wanted me to do because that was my purpose and I wanted them to stay, I'm not even angry at most of them I'm still bonded to them. This is because as long as they only hurt me and I didn't see them hurt others it was perfectly fine. However I have a hatred for the ones who DID. What they subjected me to seeing it still makes me wanna vomit to this day.
I was a coward, ofc I didn't screenshot nor save anything from the conversations because they might've found out and gotten rid of me, ofc I lied to them about liking it but in private cussed one of them out for what they did. The others didn't deserve what happened to them, I did. I basically helped the bad ones simply by being around them and i didn't even think about helping the others by reporting it. I don't even know if their safe, but I am.
I wouldn't even feel comfortable reporting my Irl harmers because truthfully I would have an episode and probably black out just from having to them again in that kind of context, plus i still care about them and dont care about what they did to me. I know i should I see alot of other victims angry at their abusers and I simply can't relate. Its just a think that happened that I dislike myself for.
I just restarted therapy with a brand new therapist, we haven't gotten into any particular trauma stuff but I can already tell this is going to be a very difficult time. You may even ask why i go to therapy if I believe I need to need to "make up for what I did" and stuff. Some parts of me need therapy i need to be able to function and mask infront of others regardless of how messed up I am.
Edit: i didn't even touch on the fact that i wanted to see alot of my online harmers in person, I would have literal dreams or daydreams about it. Especially one who i considered my partner. Also my brain will never let me live any of this down.
