We made it! The final part of my trauma anniversary trilogy. I describe how the anniversaries feel in my body (including my self-harm urges), read a couple old Facebook posts that double as journal entries, and then get into the meat: acceptance. Acceptance of how my trauma anniversaries have gone so far, and acceptance of my judgements about it. Oh and I’m super annoyed about it too.
