Do read my first story on here.

One day, two young men came to seek the help of a sage.
One of them said with revered subservience, "Respected guru, we have traveled a long way to meet you in person. We have heard of your wisdom. We are brothers, and our parents fight constantly. Since our childhood, we have witnessed mental and physical violence. As a result, we are extremely anxious in everyday situations. Please help us overcome this accumulated anxiety."
The sage remained silent, gazing intently at the two men. Then, he stood up, motioned for them to come closer, and slapped them both. In a calm, clinical voice, he asked, "Can you instantly erase the imprint of my palm from your faces?"
Before the men could fully comprehend and respond, the sage quietly returned to his cottage.

its your first story woww 🤩. Good writing. Its meaningful.Â
It's true, patience is key. Â Healing from years of trauma takes time. You need time to process what happened and time to heal. It's even harder to heal if you're in a toxic environment, especially when it feels like you can't catch a break.
