Rec | I WILL NEVER FORGET

🦴

one time when i was 8, me and my older sister were chilling in my room when my radiator began to viciously shake and i heard a very loud guttural groaning sound from it. i remember freezing, processing what happened and running for the door - except it was locked FROM THE OUTSIDE. mind you, my door at the time was a sliding door and it could ONLY be locked from the outside since my dog liked to be devious whenever we left the house. in addition, it was a hook that had to be manually lifted and placed into a loop. anyways, i do live in like a 100 year old house but my radiator has not done that in the 12 years since that incident. but maybe i hallucinated it :)

FEAR OF RATS

When I was young we had rats in the winter because we live on acres of land. We had a recently new puppy who had a bunch of small toys (also was a rat killer). We were sitting at the dining table playing a game and I was rolling around what I thought was one of our dog's toys under the table. Turns out it was a dead rat, I have been deathly afraid of rats ever since then.

When i was 6 i got bit by a spider and thought it was over for me

during a fire drill in first grade, a jumping spider bit me. i wasn’t doing a thing to him and i think what upsets me most is that he couldn’t assess my vibes to know i wasn’t a threat. i had a really mean teacher and i tried to tell her, but she angrily shushed me, as we weren’t allowed to speak during fire drills. i accepted my fate and figured she would be sorry later. i remember wistfully staring out the window as my mom drove me home, coming to terms with the end of my life. i didn’t tell her, for fear of worrying her. i peacefully ate my final dinner when i got home (velveeta mac and cheese, which i hated then and i still do now. but again, i didn’t want to complain as my mom would have a bigger issue at hand when she went to go wake me up in the morning.) i went to bed without a fuss. said goodbye to my then two year old sister, took a look around my room and gave a sigh. this was it. and i went to bed knowing i had lived a long, good six years of life. well, dear reader, i am here writing this 20 years later. so rest assured, i did survive. but i think my rational (?) thought in that moment helped me work through a lot of existential stuff at an early age. so i guess that’s cool.

i was hidden by a hitman when i was an infant

yes my family is crazy. the feud was so bad, my father is chaotic narcissist, and my mother was a depressive narcissist. they were always relocating and running away from my mamas parents bc they disapproved of my papa nd resulted in a lot of ppl traumatized. but ev one is civil now. bonus content! when i was 6 i loved to read and found a womans magazine lying around my grandparents house. it had a lot of graphic sexual content like how to effectively masturbate as a woman and how to finger/eat a man’s ass. my mama went to pick me up and found me casually reading this magazine in the dining room and she got so mad at my grandparents for leaving me unsupervised. that led me to my research abt sex and probs why i was sexually awakened at a young age.
