Wow!… I know; pple cope in different ways however this was powerful for me… to just stop communicating… if allowed to I would just hug all the pain away… 😢😢😢… try to develop the spirit to love in your own way… but others need to know that is your way of feeling loved…❤❤🖤🖤🧡🧡♾️
I had selective mutism since I was 5.And it was very bad for me...Because first days are always the scariest,they dont know I have selective mutism.They will be like"Whats you name" and I will not say anything.Some teachers say im rude for not answering which made me sad.Now im 13.5 and I dont really have selective mutism.Took me nearly 10 years and I still cant talk to my relatives 😥
I have selective mutism. I was diagnosed at age 5. I think people just don't want me to succeed because they are afraid I might do something really stupid! 😢
That was such a heartfelt movie. I was sexually molested when I was 10 years young, naive, overly trusting & innocent & for the longest time, I, too, was afraid to communicate with anyone to tell them what happened to me. I only shared it with my younger sister. I was afraid to say anything because I felt no one would believe me since I was so young. It took me over 15 years to say anything about it to my parents. I understand where Kennedy's fears came from. This was hard to watch until the end when she actually spoke 😊❤! That made me so happy & relieved for her to fight hard for her freedom.
My heart ached for this girl. Childhood is a time for laughter & play, and when children suffer from emotional trauma and are sad, so sad - it's just WRONG & goes against the laws of nature!! When I taught school, every once in a while I'd have a "silent child" in class - It became quite prevalent in the 21st century. I never knew such a thing existed, before I experienced it for myself. At first, I didn't know what to make of it, as a substitute teacher. Then I taught one of them long term. I would try to make her laugh, & say things like: "And WHY are you yelling, young lady?" & she'd start to giggle. The kids found this most fascinating, because she was usually poker faced. Then slowly but surely she began to open up, and to my amazement, her mother wasn't pleased. She let me know that I was NOT to make her speak & to let her be silent. That's when I realized this child was expected to be silent, as there was something that family needed her to hide & not talk about. Just my gut feeling, but it made me very sad for that poor child!! It breaks my heart to know that children & helpless animals are tormented & hurt by monsters who disguise themselves as humans!! Takes all kinds to make a world, and life teaches us that there are kind & wicked people everywhere. Namaste🙏!!
The best thing about this is it reminds me about other people I've met that are like the teacher. There are some really helpful humans out there that are aware of what people to through and what they need...
Extraordinary insight in this film . It shows a quality that exceeds other medias by far . Long live this excellence placed before our eyes and minds .
Sometimes I think talking is overrated. Just for an example while I understand that the teacher was a model of compassion, her voice was distracting and grating. As a survivor I find singing has always been cathartic for me. Music allowed me to express pain too scary to articulate long before I even remembered the details of trauma. I just followed the feelings. To this day I am most comfortable in silence; conversations are like minefields. Never know when they'll blow up. But if I find someone with whom I feel safe I can be a real chatterbox. It's also not an accident that theater is very attractive to survivors.
Such a beautiful film. I was hooked from the start. I really enjoyed this film. Kennedy saying 'here' was such a powerful moment. The cast and crew did such an amazing job on this film. Bravo to them
Now why would you keep opening the door to check or even step outside. That's already letting some evil identity in the house. Definitely creepy though..
All it takes is someone who cares, sees the problem but the passion, to help you work around it until you are ready. Love these short films, they are very telling
I’m stimming through the second half of the film because this portrayal of the long term effects of trauma is so accurate. Last year I took three months to daily write out all of the memories. I did not look at anything I wrote. All was sealed into envelopes and put away until 21 days arts the last memories were written out. Then, on the day, I read all of the writing out. Took me all day. After this is was so severely traumatised it took me some weeks to recover. On the 1st January 2024 I felt reborn. I’m living a great life now I am finally free. It took 61 years of dally agony to discover, apply and achieve liberation from the past. It IS POSSIBLE. I’m living proof.
A volunteer at my old workplace had selective mutism.* Once I dreamed she had spoken to me-a nice voice. I mentioned it to her the next day. She reacted strongly. A few days later she confessed to me: she had started speaking again, so far only with total strangers. Reading to blind people was an easier place to start; she'd signed up to do that at a library. (* I learned that term here, reading comments, after so many years of wondering.) Now, decades later, I see her around town and we chat some. We'll always have that dream bond.
