Trauma jokes

My friend: "Ess, stop with the self-harm jokes it's not funny."

Me: "C'mon it's not that deep."

like this if you have ever been abused.

"911, what’s your emergency?" I asked, listening to the quiet sobs of a little kid on the other end of the line.

“I think my daddy want to kill me,” the girl said and cried, making me freeze on the spot as I recognized my daughter’s voice.

Why don't molestation victims speak up about their trauma? Because it's a touchy topic.

Hey guys. I just wanted to say, while I think some rape jokes can be funny, not one of these are. In fact, I find them pretty horrifying.

I was raped when I was fourteen (about six years ago), and I have made one rape joke in my entire life when, last year, I said "I don't fuck with rapists, I just get fucked by them." I thought it was funny. No one else did, and they were probably right in that.

My point is this: rape jokes CAN be funny when they are used by victims as a way of coping with trauma. They CANNOT be funny when they are made about raping someone else. Even if there is a difference between joking about raping someone and raping someone, it is absolutely disgusting to think such a horrific crime is funny, and I am sure at least some of the posters on this page have already crossed the line into committing rape.

Great material for social scientific research, though, gentlemen. Really well done.

This isn't a joke, but I'm a survivor and use humor to cope. I find these extremely funny, so please leave the people writing these alone 😭

I'd tell a joke about my abusive dad, but I only remember the punch line.

Someone asked me, "What are them scars on your arm?" I thought I was playing a violin.

Why did little Billy drop his ice cream cone?

Cuz he got hit by a bus while crossing the street.

I got raped by my therapist... now I know where the name comes from!

I was asked at school to draw a line across the paper, but instead I showed them my wrists.

Dark humor is like a cancer, it's funnier when a kid gets it.

Why did 10 have PTSD?

Because he was in the middle of 9/11.

I SH so much, even when I die and become a ghost, you can see red stripes floating around the room.

"Wanna play the rape game?"

"No!!!!"

"That's the spirit!"

What's the difference between my father and acne?

Acne waited for me to be a teenager before coming on my face.

Q. What do rape victims miss?

A. Part of their brain.

The kids at Robb Elementary School went in to read books. Instead, they got dozens of magazines.

The top worst thing for an orphan, and probably the most awkward one, is when they're having sex and the other person is calling them "mommy" or "daddy."

I'm so depressed, I gave my therapist trauma.
