Sometimes I go days or weeks without posting on FB and I seldom post videos or selfies. Speaking up, being visible, saying what I feel, standing up for myself is HARD for me. I have multiple traumas from being bullied as a kid & teenager, abusive relationships, toxic work environments, some serious online bullying a ...
