Exhale
“It’s almost a full moon my loves…so the rituals have begun. I should’ve known something was going on, solely based off of last week’s festivities, but I failed to smell the pre-game set up. They distracted me from anticipating their future trauma by inflicting present day trauma. Clever devils.”

“Go”
“In the screenshots below I included texts sent to that side of the family where I make reference to possibly opening an investigation. But I have no idea who I’d open an investigation with because when they did their last big trigger attempt around the time my BD died…I called the police to try to make a police report. After they found out I was ‘bipolar’ they told me to just stay away from my ‘family’.”

MotherMayI
“If your child isn’t able to hold you accountable…that is indication that you may have filled your child’s childhood with the misconception that they were always the problem. Which suggests that your expectation of being celebrated on days like Mother’s Day, by a child you obligated to give you this title, is rooted in your need to validate your own worth more than anything else.”


Alignment
“A thought that keeps coming up when I spot an intrusive one is “It’ll be here when you finish”. That’s my way of reminding myself that I’ll still be able to engage thoughts trying to get my attention…but it’ll just have to be done in a way that encourages me to set boundaries with myself. These boundaries allow me to prioritize my mental well being above the thoughts that seek to destroy it.”

GrowingPains
“For a while, black women were escaping our punishments for refusing to be held accountable…until our men started preferring other races/cultures. And now…the great divide has deepened with the increase of ‘relationship advice’ podcasts. Advice that’s being championed by ‘the blind and the bitter’ so everyone is losing.”

(K)eep(O)n(S)miling
“I look around and see a lot of other people who are also on assignment but instead of “electrifying” their pupils…their ego “pacifies” them while craving to be seen as a ‘god’ in a field that isn’t their ministry. That oversight can lead one to ‘sacrifice’ their morals in order to achieve what they want for themselves as opposed to achieving what God wants for them.”

HoodyWho
“At this point, I’m less concerned with how I’ll be viewed and more inquisitive about who I am. Because weird things like this keep happening and I can’t imagine that this amount of energetic effort would be wasted on a nobody. My twin telling me “I’ll never be the chosen one” has been playing in my head all day and now I really want to know who tf am I?”

Culture-ist
“I realize this subject is sensitive because it is taboo for an African…American person to openly declare ideologies of non-inclusion because we’ve been conditioned to believe that welcoming outsiders with open arms comes naturally to us. But those open arms often embrace individuals who have hidden agendas.”

IdenticalOpp(osite)
“Many many many years ago, my twin said something that sparked my suspicions about her playing with magic. One day we were leaving out of her apartment and she randomly…and casually…asked if I wanted to know how to break up someone’s relationship. I asked her what she was talking about and she said something about a ‘freezer spell’.”





Diss(Ertation)
“I need to take a few seconds to hold myself accountable for not staying in a woman’s place when I initially advised that Kdot would just be “ingesting empty calories” if he made a response.”

GimmeThat
“God has literally been reduced to a Sugar Daddy…of sorts…and the only way for Him to get the sugar of praise is to open His wallet filled with favor. I know some will find offense in these statements and that’s probably because I’m right. But I’m also ‘bipolar’ so you have to publicly say you understand…and gossip about my jarring beliefs in private. It’s the rules.”

CtrlAltDelete
“The possibility of self-deletion could’ve become reality if I hadn’t found alternatives for my depression. Over the years, I’ve always known what to do and when to do it in regards to overcoming triggers meant to make me self destruct. It’s like God really wants me here.”

Paranoia
“Unfortunately for me, there are many psychological terms to explain away the paranoia of ‘diagnosed’ individuals, who are actually just experiencing spiritual warfare. So speaking about my experiences just opens me up to more claims about my alleged mental imbalance. And when I add in the fact that I experience this warfare from strangers too…I open myself up to suggestions for psych evaluations.”

MamiSeeMamiDo
“My issue with her refusal to play her role lies in the fact that I literally feel like I’m begging her to be the mother I always felt we deserved. One that puts her pride aside for the betterment of her unit. Instead…she allowed the same pride that divided us as kids…to divide us as adults.“

GoldenChile
“For the longest, my ‘family’ was able to get away with this ability to plausibly deny their ‘crazed’ family member (“it’s me…hi”) until I gave a death prophecy, in December 2022, that came true when my father died two weeks after I wrote it. (SS’s below). I won’t pretend I wasn’t as shocked as everyone else when it actually came to pass…but after that…my ‘family’ went into overdrive trying to convince me of my mental imbalance.”
