CW: Neurodivergent and Abusive Parents
This is an extremely dense and uncomfortable diamond of a micro story about being a child with an abusive and neurodivergent mother. It's spartan and rich with pain and emotion. As somone with abusive and neglectful parents and complex post traumatic stress disorder this hit different and really resonated with me. I had to listen to it twice back to back.
I've seen reviews talk question why this exists and that it's 'just' suffering and misery. I feel like I can see the experience and intent of the author and it is both the above and more than that. People make all kinds of art for all kinds of reasons, and it's OK for anything to be not for you. I have no intention of reading 'extreme horror' and other specifically upsetting and uncomfortable works, but I understand why they exist (and enjoy watching videos from those who do read them). Why have you done this? Is an interesting question to consider of an artist in relation to a work, but as a dismissive accusatory statement it is genuinely depressing.
Anyways, I really emotionally connected with this and thoroughly enjoyed it, even if it was not a pleasant experience, and will absolutely be checking out more of the author.… (meer)
