I've compartmentalized since I was a child, my pain was no use so I just smiled. I became a protector & defender for those who were weak, I was their voice when they couldn't speak. It took my mind off myself, so I compartmentalized and never got help. I compartmentalized the things I saw, buried the traumas so I didn't fall, I had to be strong or I could lose it all. I compartmentalized. Noone knew the pain deep in my soul, I had to be strong or I could lose it all. I just smiled and said I'm fine. I became a master at hiding my truth and the pain, scars & bruises. I compartmentalized again and again, complex ptsd was my best friend. I helped others to feel better about myself, but Over time I became someone else. I lost my friends and family, my soul was in turmoil, longing to be free. I self medicated and tried to runaway, but the voices got louder and made me stay. The years of trauma came flooding back & everyone I loved turned their back. They only knew me as the strong defender, now I was broken and really didn't matter. I was nothing but a shadow of myself. The trauma left behind didn't matter to anyone else. I had to find a way out, to come to grips with all I pushed out. I am better now, I found my way, I am hoping for a better day. When I find myself struggling, I say! don't compartmentalized for another day. I face the demons as they come, I fight to the death for what I have already won. I helped many, that is true, but helping myself has been a major breakthrough. I am worthy just the way that I am, I am strong and my very best friend. I know what I've been through, but I'm still here, standing tall, and singing this song to you. Don't Compartmentalize, grow from your pain You will be better and have no shame. You are worthy, just like me and we all just want to be free!
