Why do most victims survive the harm, while perpetrators can’t cope with a slither of accountability? — Victims live with the pain. The fear. The long-term fallout. Not being believed.

Hi. I was just wondering if there are any scientific studies proving that astral projection is real. Thank you
I attribute my LD to the episode ‘What was in Blue’s Dream’ from Blue’s Clues. Home sick one day from school, watched this episode, dreamed that episode that night then not only did I know I was dream…
Yeah, this is not true and not really good advice. In fact, it’s mental bullshit that feeds the ego of a person. People are bitter and want their ex to feel bad and regretful because it makes them fee…
I think it depends. Sometimes with meds still active it's easier for me to lucid dream. Other times there's no way I'm going anywhere other than watching my thoughts stream by. I've never APd, but I'…
This sounds like bullshit, but I am open to be convinced it's real. You compared it to LD, but lucid dreaming is just controlling your dreams, it's in your head. AP according to you guys is literally …
if you can AP iv heard of a few thing you can do to verify if parts of your experiences are real. like leaving a card in your window seal without looking at it and verify it in AP. Mostly you need to …
Hi, I do lucid dream most of the time. But last night I knew I was lucid dreaming and I was stuck in a loop where I couldn’t wake up for real. Like every time I woke up I was still in a dream. I was r…

It's because it's not about those details but about immersion into the scenario. Someone can have a mental argument in there without seeing other people. They followed the argument because of the imme…
That's not the same thing at all. You try to grasp this spiritual teaching in reverse order, teying to manipulate the world from the end the chain of event instead of the beginning... The world is no…

I’m with you. Avoidant discard is real.
please can we also ban AI-generated posts from this sub and ban the people who use it? the AI spam lately is unreal.
To me, that just sounds like emotional maturity, though it's hardy a new concept. However, being able to hold two opposing or conflicting emotions or ideas is indeed growth, and if you're making progr…
You probably overwhelmed him. Even for someone secure (taking him at his word that that is what he was), it can happen. It's happened to me, and it was difficult to get across in any kind of wording t…
Super invested with me until we moved in and things got real. Not that sex is everything but went from 3hr can’t get enough of you multiple times a week to nothing almost the day we moved in together.…
That is a very interesting refelction! As someone more anxious, I tend to do similar things. The only difference is that I place people on a pedestal, more so when I haven't met them. I always have an…

Umm.. I think your % is off and there are way more lurkers here and some real people out there. I thought about doing posts, a podcast, or a book as an entrepreneur about how hard it was for years ru…
I literally felt the same, and so needed a second opinion. Here's what Claude Opus 4 had to say (after copy pasting it): Why does this reddit post feel like an ad? My spidy sense is tingling: Yo…
Love this comment. I’ve found it to be so true. For a regular ex I was with for nearly a decade and we had a fairly normal/stable/secure attachment to each other, maybe a little bit dependent on each …
I feel for you, I’m in a similar position at the moment. I’m caught up on what was a relatively short lived but very intense connection I shared with a guy late last year. It ended with him ghosting m…
Orrrrrrrr.... In the early thaw of spring, when frost still clung stubbornly to the edges of the earth, the apology remained unsent. It lingered like a letter never mailed. Its seal unbroken, its tru…
My ex came back 4 times in 2 years. Every time the cycles were the same but condensed, like at first it was long nights of processing our breakup over text and finally meeting up and saying I love yo…
I can’t tell you that your experience isn’t real. I can just go off of my experience dating someone who was avoidant and hearing other people’s experiences. The fact that you didn’t let yourself care …
I don’t think that you are FA. Someone who is FA would not have given that much love to someone for six years nor would be willing to work on themselves in therapy or want to build something emotional…
And isn’t secure love just more fun? For real.
I think it depends on what you want. If your boyfriend is FA and he doesn't know how to regulate his feelings then the exact thing that he would do is breakup/ghost you when he started to become emot…

I'm leaning towards secure now, but was mostly anxious attachment with some very strong avoidant tendencies as well. All of my exes were avoidant. 2-3. You're missing a key component of avoidance, wh…

I’m a year late but let’s be real, this is facts. The people bashing manifestation or New Thought teachings are just mad it didn’t work for them. They got half-baked info off TikTok or Abraham Hicks, …
Yeah unfortunately when things are steady, I can't help but wait for the shoe to drop because it seems too good to be real. I'll check out the newsletter, thank you
Thanks for the answer. I didn’t expect them to change, but relationships work in two ways, right? If I was as important to them as they said, is it wrong to hope for effort on our relationships on th…

The avoiding looking at ur bank account is so real. Ur not broke if u dont know it yet 🤧
I just rejected someone I liked for no reason other than my avoidant reflex kicking in when things get too real. It's not the first time it happened, but this time it hit hard. I'm devastated and I do…
I relate to this a lot. Therapy taught me there's this “myth of secure attachment” that secure people are 100% Secure™ all the time and once you’re healed you’re basically immune to messy feelings. Th…
EMDR helped me significantly, even with just a few months of sessions. it sounds like pseudo-science but I promise its real. it uses your brain's dream processing system to reprocess traumatizing mem…
After so many years of dealing with it you eventually yawn and roll your eyes at some of the stuff that is said. Like ok if that’s how you feel. I would have stayed in this relationship if I hadn’t …
Very happy to share :) A few years ago I worked with a life coach to work on self-esteem and managing/setting boundaries. I still touch base with her when I need 1:1 support. After the avoidant discar…
