Sometimes the coping mechanisms that keep us safe also end up hurting us. Luna walks through the world with her head down—not because she wants to, but because life taught her to. Years of trauma, fear, and judgment made it feel safer to become invisible. When you’ve experienced repeated harm just for existing, lowering your gaze becomes second nature. You shrink yourself to survive.

But over time, survival mode has a cost.

In this comic, we explore the way mental health and trauma physically manifest in the body. Luna’s posture isn’t just about slouching—it’s about self-protection. It’s about shielding herself from the people who stared, laughed, judged, or did worse. And now, her body carries the weight of that history: the back pain, the neck pain, the constant dizziness… all reminders that trauma doesn’t just live in the mind. It settles in the bones, the muscles, the posture we carry through the world.

There’s no shame in needing to feel safe. There’s no shame in walking a little differently because of what you’ve been through. This comic is for anyone who’s been told, “Just stand up straight” without anyone asking what made you curl in the first place.

We see you. You’re not alone in this.

Have you noticed your mental health affecting your physical body? We’d love to hear your story in the comments if you’re open to sharing.

It's not that I work well under pressure... It's that I can ONLY work when under pressure.

META-Health is a #TraumaInformed Practice

Psychiatrist Bessel van der Kolk and his work inspired META-Health Trainer Kora Klapp to write this new article in her blog:

https://metahealth4u.com/en/meta-health-is-a-trauma-informed-practice/

The article explores what happens in our brain if we are exposed to trauma, what are typical signs, what can be done to attempt to heal this, and what perspectives are for our societies!

Me playing chess: 800 ELO on a good day, at least I Googled en passant

Me avoiding conflict in a conversation: Candidate Master going on FIDE Master, expertly avoiding even the slightest aggravation through carefully crafted statements and expert avoidance of triggering topics, cautiously navigating my way toward a peaceful ending so I can go have a shutdown over it in my car and ruminate on it for the next 16 hours

"why are you so quiet?"

because I got yelled at for being loud as a kid and my brain was like, "oh, okay . I have to be quiet for the rest of my life now."

The other day, I was still sleeping and my unconscious mind sensed something dropping to the floor. It instantly woke me up and yelled, "I'm up!"

It was what I used to do as a teen when my dad screamed at me to get up for school. Because if I lingered too long in bed, he would drag me out of it or put a wet washcloth on my face.

It's like, "Ohhhhh, wooooow...that's a trauma response. That's not good, is it?"

He wasn't even that violent, but apparently the screaming was enough to trigger my fawning response.

#TraumaResponse is not your imagination, and society is pretending everything is “normal”: https://www.superversive.co/blog/its-not-your-imagination

Climbing out of an abusive relationship is eye-opening. I feel like every day I'm seeing something new that I had been oppressing for the past few years.

I just splurged and bought myself a few self-care items, and I was fucking feeling guilty about it. A new shower head and teak bath shelves and shower bench. Now I'm having trouble thinking back over the past few years -- "when have I spent over $100 on something that wasn't for 'us' or 'them' -- just something for 'me'?" and I'm having trouble thinking of anything. I'm not going to feel guilty about a little self-pampering -- I'm not taking necessities away from my children, or taking food out of their mouths (which my former partner did recently, but that's another story altogether).
