Hungry? Why cook sides when you can get this much sodium in 1 place…

This might look like just a garbage bag to you.
But to me this was a sign that I was moving again. No suit case, no bed or toys. Just clothes in a trash bag to head to the next mysterious, scary home.
Most of my placements were not scary but to a shy little girl all alone, they were.
Most of my families just ignored me. I got fed and drove to mandatory counseling but that’s about all I got. No birthday presents, no Christmas gifts under the tree. No conversation, no love. Just warm bed.
My mom always provided a warm bed but she also taught me life lessons, she showed me love. She protected me. Se showed me what not to do. My foster families never did those things. But they were safer for me somehow. Realization that my foster parents got paid to take care of me while my mom never did was unsettling. Where is the justice in this?
Thrown away like trash; every year a new home, a new school. Why was this allowed by them but not my mother?

I feel so invisible 🫥 if you see this, please offer words of encouragement. I feel so isolated, alone, unloved. When a loved one takes their own life ppl always say I wish I knew they felt like that. Truth is, everyone only cares after it is too late.
