Heard about this on the radio today. The audio clip alone reminded me of the trauma I experienced as a kid growing up at home under my mother. I can’t watch the video without bawling. Without the belt, just pure brunt rage, this was my very existence in my home on a regular basis- up until the age of 17. If I spilled milk…. yeah. Pretty crappy.
Living with fear under a person like that is one of the most crippling things any person can ever experience.

A normal person experiences trauma and crisis over increments throughout ones lifetime. I seem to be the exception.
I married my husband after a few months of being together. Every moment since, beginning with our wedding day, has been a moment of crisis. We tried to solve our problems and then it fell apart. On our 3 year anniversary I started this blog. Alone and away from my husband. Almost another 700 days passed before I recommitted my time to finishing this project, complete the healing process that I let myself get distracted with.
It was the advise from my aunt to give everything 700 days before seeing things get better.... and we will have survived the hardest part of raising the kiddos.
700 days to journey through what will be the toughest part of our marriage: with three kids under the age of two, confronting depression, and everything else that has been working its way against us.
