YouTubeCrappy Childhood FairyMy name is Anna Runkle: I teach people to recognize and heal the symptoms of Childhood PTSD. I'm not a doctor or therapist. I’m someone who grew up with several alcoholics in the family, and all the dynamics that tend to go with that -- poverty, neglect, violence, and an environment of chronic, deep stress. In adulthood, the telltale signs of Childhood PTSD were all there -- health problems, depression and anxiety, relationship struggles -- but traditional therapies never seemed to help. When I found what DID help, my whole life changed. For more than 29 years I’ve been teaching a program that anyone can use, whether or not they have access to professional help. I focus first on healing dysregulation, and then on changing the self-defeating behaviors that are so common for those of us traumatized as kids. I'm glad you're here!

Having some hard realisations lately.

My undiagnosed childhood was compounded by emotional abuse and neglect. My mother constantly told me I was stupid and useless and she couldn’t wait to be rid of me.

This view of myself became so entwined with my autism, blaming all my different behaviour and thoughts on being stupid and useless, that at 50 I am finding it impossible to separate them. There’s what I know and what I feel and I know I’m not stupid or useless, but that’s how my autism makes me feel.

I’m gonna need therapy 😂

I’ve tried every level of govt, every service & they won’t help.

Please ask people in if they have somewhere for me to go. Could they take me in (I can pay small rent)? A lot of people have ‘big house, not enough money’ problem. I can help!

Is anybody an #advocate?

I would be incredibly grateful for any help beyond words.🙏

Please read articles for full info

Thank you for reading.

Canary · Nearly a year on and severe ME patient Anna is still trapped in life-threatening domestic abuseNearly a year on and severe ME patient Anna is still trapped in life-threatening domestic abuse from Canary on 1 April 2025

PLEASE HELP ME ESCAPE!

Please #boost and share to other platforms.🙏I don’t have energy left (see below).

Seems I’m famous (and real!) and desperate enough to go to the media for help. Yes, the trapped woman in the articles below is me.

👉Last year:
thecanary.co/global/world-anal

Now things are worse, I’m much sicker, being neglected and will die without a safe stable #home. Doctor’s words.

If not mentioned in the article, my father is a diagnosed #narcissist with #psychopathic & #antisocial tendencies by a #psychiatrist. He urged me get away from my father asap because he is not a ‘safe person’ & neither are the other family members who lured me back through the promise of help.They didn’t help they made me progressively worse to the point of almost incapacitation at stage of #illness.

Stopping Unnecessary Jail Expansion with Decarcerate Sacramento

radical-guide.com/stopping-unn

Decarcerate Sacramento is again preparing to mobilize against the Main Jail expansion on February 26 when Sacramento County Board of Supervisors will be reviewing recommendations for the next stage of the $2 BILLION jail expansion, and the community needs to show up and fight back!

A #PWME helper got too sick but found this site:

theroomxchange.com/how-it-works

It matches home owners w ppl wanting to rent a room.

Can’t manage using this page alone.

Currently only very ill ppl are volunteering & drop out fast.

Anyone healthy?

I live w a psychopath (diagnosed) & more! Need. To. Leave!

in their feeder. One hen was filmed hunched over with a twisted neck, whilst another was suffering from a suspected #infection and diarrhea.

This farm has since been suspended by #RSPCA Assured.

Throughout our 'Rotten' investigations we have exposed #suffering, #misery and #neglect at cage-free farms that masquerade as 'high-welfare'. We have laid bare the stark difference between the marketing propaganda of happy free-range hens in fields and the grim reality of thousands of hens

My #abusers are evil. I have to give up appts I’ve waited 12-18 months for & my birthday bc they’re going to make this environment even worse by adding another abuser so I’ll be in sensory overload #abuse/ #neglect hell.

I’ll be lucky to get a cupcake.

I can’t survive this again. Stuffed in a dark room forgotten & getting scraps.

I need somewhere else to live.

Help me 😭

#Maine Rarely Sanctions Residential Care Facilities Even After Severe #Abuse or #Neglect Incidents
==

From 2020 to 2022, Maine’s state health department cited residential care facilities for dozens of resident rights violations and hundreds of other deficiencies.

But it has imposed only one fine in response.
