yeah

I can stand a little bit with people i know well. But they also know if I'm in "the space", if they get too close I will bite. Not joking. Only certain touch is semi safe for me. I only let my mom kiss my forehead if i can't get out of it. I sometimes let her hug me, but I don't ever hug her back because I am in the fetal position, protecting myself. It upsets her, but she was one of my abusers, so I'm not going to allow that if I can't protect myself. I do not like random people coming up and touching me, even if I sort of know them. Sometimes also my skin hurts too badly for any touch - even clothes. THe panics and the pain are hard. The flashbacks and the memories. Do what you can to make boundaries and take care of you!
