I hate the fact that our society seems to think that we shouldn't be upset, shouldn't be traumatised, shouldn't be in pain, when such horrible things have happened to us. You know, if you got shot, people would visit you in the hospital. They'd tell you how sorry they are that you got hurt. They'd take care of you until your wound healed. But because our wounds aren't visible, and because they don't like to think about or acknowledge the way we got hurt in the first place, they just want our wounds to go away. Or they want us to act like they've gone away.
I dunno. I'm babbling. Sorry.
I support you, even if I'm not making much sense at the moment.

Trauma survivors feel *everything* much more intensely than those who haven't survived trauma. Literally, our brain signals are stronger for everything - to you, having lasagna made feels like the end of the world, like you're being starved or intentionally left out.
Our emotions, as Spinal Tap would say "It goes to 11" (meaning they go to 11 on a scale of 1 to 10). Everything you feel is more intense, and that is completely normal for survivors. Our emotions overwhelm us and we just get swamped with chemicals.
If your family's keeping the medication you need to help reach a middle ground emotion-wise, you need to tell your doctors, etc. They're intentionally causing you harm, and intentionally holding back treatment. It's illegal in most places, and you can get people to enforce those laws
