I wasn’t shot, so it’s not the same suffering as others went through. I’m not sure if I have PTSD from it. I think a lot of Americans get a feeling of disgust when hearing the minimization of gun violence.

It wasn’t the only mass causality event I lived through. I don’t feel the need to share the stories with most people in my life but if the topics come up, I’m comfortable sharing my experiences.

so, i’ve got ptsd from a few different events and only the worst one fucked with my memory. strangely, that’s the one i wanted to forget and i forgot like, almost everything before it. so like it’s where my memory begins. yaaaaaaay.
