So let's be real for a second. Rug burn fucking sucks. But don't look it up on Google, it's kind of gross.

Anyways, the rug burn I mean is metaphorical. Like a rug burn on the brain and heart.

When you've faced emotional abuse and trauma from not only family, but surrounding peers, it hurts a lot. And do you know what else hurts a lot?

Rug burn.

It stings and hurts every time it happens. But when you go to itch it, it just hurts even more. And no matter how much it hurts, no matter how much it burns, you keep itching it. It's just a natural human reaction.

The itch is the need of wanting the emotional pain to go away, but no matter how much you itch it, it hurts more and more and eventually becomes bloody.

And then at this point, the wounds are so deep, bloody and scabbed, it will never heal back smooth. No matter what kind of skincare, or oil or treatment you use, it will scar.

Scarring from emotional abuse may be invisible, but it feels as visible as an open, bloody rug burn.
