Sharing About Life, Always With Honesty.
Named after the site. I have developed (or perhaps increased my intolerance) of the falsehoods, denying, lying, pompous attitudes, and abuse that goes on in this world. Specifically in the online world and by men. Here I will share open, brave, beautiful, real, raw, gutsy, brave, sad, and “say it like it is” stuff. Always honestly.
We’re trying something new here at It’s Time To Get Honest. We want our posts to be completely accessible for you to keep so we’ve created this post entirely on an easily printable image.
Feel free to let us know in the comments if you like it or if you have any problems saving or printing the post.
Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD) is a condition that results from chronic or long-term exposure to emotional trauma over which a victim has little or no control and from which there is little or no hope of escape, such as in cases of:
When people have been trapped in a situation over which they had little or no control at the beginning, middle or end, they can carry an intense sense of dread even after that situation is removed. This is because they know how bad things can possibly be. And they know that it could possibly happen again. And they know that if it ever does happen again, it might be worse than before.
People who suffer from C-PTSD may feel un-centred and shaky as if they are likely to have an embarrassing emotional breakdown or burst into tears at any moment. They may feel unloved – or that nothing they can accomplish is ever going to be “good enough” for others.
People who suffer from C-PTSD may feel compelled to get away from others and be by themselves so that no-one will witness what may come next. They may feel afraid to form close friendships to prevent possible loss should another catastrophe strike.
People who suffer from C-PTSD may feel that everything is just about to go “out the window” and that they will not be able to handle even the simplest task. They may be too distracted by what is going on at home to focus on being successful at school or in the workplace.

“Experiencing overwhelming pain doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try to sketch new thoughts or paint new memories because pain can be as transformative as the art on a torn canvas.
It can make you appreciate all the small joys you’d never think to relish.
You are forced to remember the things you took for granted, the ones that appeared minuscule, and realize their larger-than-life roles in the grand scheme of things.”

“The truth is, what feels like your crucifixion doesn’t have any quick fixes, only slow movements in a never-ending dance.
Time or words alone can’t always soothe the wounds that can’t be put into language.
Trauma can speak in a foreign tongue and weave its code into every cell – this is the type of pain where the body and the mind both keep the score.
Sometimes the only band-aids you have are platitudes mixed with the raw truth.
Those days where you feel like you won’t survive and the days where you learn you can, and all the beautifully horrific moments in between.”
An edited excerpt from; Read This During The Worst Moments Of Your Life | Thought Catalogue
“Windows slammed shut; curtains drawn together, the pounding chaos of the world retreats into out-there.
Daggers of past pain blocked by layers of glass and fabric. The land of crazy-making finally dulled to a harmless roar.
Silly yammering from the TV spills out ironic normalcy.
A blanket’s softness wraps around, warming her like no lover ever did.
Dimmed lights issue a calm that settles, easing her pounding heart.
Sweet baby offers comfort, love, and purrs of content and companionship.
The time finally slows down to a repetitive, peaceful, tic; no longer spinning out of control.”
