To anyone questioning the timing of AOC,
Trauma is not something you just "deal with." It's not a cut and dry 1+1 = 2. It took me 10 years -- of work -- to come to terms with my heart attack.
No one speaks out IMMEDIATELY after a trauma.
This is real. Listen to her. Please.

Every person who criticizes AOC right now is either a) blissfully unaware of the type of trauma a lot of us have dealt with or b) so in denial of their own shit they're projecting.
If you're in the club, you know we don't fuck around with death. This was awful. Listen to her.

I had to deal with people telling me it was no big deal. People telling me to get over it. My own brain telling me to move on.
Putting in the work is a tough thing. I'm glad I did. I wish I could help more people do it.
And honestly? Fuck everyone who says it's easy. It's not.

You don't win any awards for telling people to "get over it."
You're just a broken asshole.
Don't be a broken asshole.
