When I was younger like when I was 2 i remember that there was some therapist that came over to our house, i really don’t remember much but I don’t remember much but i remember I was made to stare her in the eyes because I had trouble with eye contact and I was super sensitive to sound. I’m not sure I think I was too young to understand but I tought the therapist was nice I think? According to my mom’s account I liked the therapist, it turns out this was an ABA therapist. I know there’s some people that where traumatized for life from ABA, but I think I was so young to the point that if there was any trans I went through i forgot about it. But I do remember one thing. My mom one day put headphones on me and played some classical musical on maximum volume. I had really sensitive hearing so i really hurt. I remember I wasn’t allowed to take off the headphones so i just cried and screamed. That was probably the only thing I negitivly remember. I kinda now just realizing that’s probably not normal. I’m not really sensitive to noises anymore, infact i actually have hearing issues, i really can’t hear people well most of the time, a lot of people joke I’m deaf. But like I don’t remember a lot what happened but I’m just writing my realization I was in ABA therapy and that isn’t a good thing.
