Dysphoria

Dysphoria is a strange, cruel thing.
People have told me that it’s hard to imagine for someone like me. I think they see “thin” and “strong” and think “better”, or maybe the word is closer to “easier”.
What they don’t see is the childhood bare bones; the raw wounds that can only ever scab over with time. Ready to bleed anew should the feelings stir up.
