It’s like this weirdly stifled cry for help, because they feel the need to be seen as hard while also REALLY wanting people to know that they’ve been through a LOT and a normal person would be hurting BAD but not them because they’re so TOUGH but please please also recognize how hard just existing is for them.

It’s a hedged cry for help.

Like drop the macho act and ask for help, buddy. It’s ok.
