Stunning introduction. I have been fooling around in astral spaces for years having learned as a teenager. I'm thrilled to discover a whole community, nay a library! This is really beautiful
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 …
This is really what I needed to hear. As painful as it is, being told that we could try again has rlly screwed my brain up. I need to get better for me not her
I am sorry but when you are experiencing an astral projection you know it right away because your consciousness stay awake and powerful, I remember my first time as teenager, the first feeling that ov…
Because none of this is real and your post history shows that you doubt all of this stuff
This is really interesting. I’m (DA) on an SNRI, and I have no plans to come off it because I can’t risk becoming depressed again. I was always very DA, even as a toddler. I felt nothing way before I…
If you are healing from a previous toxic relationship, I’m guessing that whatever happened triggered something that the past and that is what you are feeling. You need to take the time to soothe yours…
Thank you so much for this detailed reply. It honestly feels like you are in my brain because every single thing you brought up is just so accurate. I truly feel heard and seen, so thank you. Just rea…
It's a form of emotional burnout. You're emotionally exhausted. And your DA partner hasn't broken up with you yet? They typically deactivate and run for the hills because of their own fear of intimac…
yep i get what you mean, makes total sense. being an hsp + anxiously attached means your brain just *feels everything* even if it’s not actually affecting you. like the back pain thing or the flight, …
This is really insightful. I've noticed this habit alot with myself as an AP. I think it depends on certain DA's who tend to take a break longer vs shorter.
This is really deep and I appreciate it. There is a lot here for me to come back and reread when I’m feeling hurt. Thank you. You described things pretty well.
Wow I am sorry. I have felt similarly before and it is such a terrible thing to experience. There was a time, even, where I was paranoid that I was NPD (despite being, if anything, the complete opposi…
This is really useful! Thank you for taking your time to respond. In your experience, how can you tell you are going too fast?
This is really important to know about yourself! There are circumstances that can and will push even securely attached people into anxious/avoidant attachment. What’s funny is both attachment styles s…
I feel really conflicted about this post. Enough to come back to it days later. On the one hand, everyone is entitled to their own boundaries and enforcing your own boundaries is empowering and health…
This is really interesting. I did wonder a couple of time if its BPD but brushed it off without a thought. I am currently not taking any therapy but will definitely look into what you have suggested. …
This is really great. Thank you for sharing it!!
Thank you! I have never heard the term over-adapting in relationships so this is really helpful. I think my problem must be somehow linked to close relationships, and not my self worth in general. Thi…
this is really helpful, thanks for taking the time to write this out!! I think it's probably a mix of avoidant triggers and not really being in love with someone. it is unfortunately very hard to tell…

This is really reassuring, actually. I think I’ve been treating an Instagram follow like a much bigger statement than it really is. Taking it step by step and reading the reaction feels like the right…
Make sure you are not abandoning yourself in this. New relationships rarely need space. So I think you need to dig deep to see if this is really violating what you want in a relationship and be able t…
This is really my exact experiance thank you for sharing, im so sorry you have to go through this too
> a lunch box, coffee pot and a clock he gave me that was accidentally in the bag he took when he left Are you sure that this is really about getting the stuff back? It sounds like a bunch of junk t…
Ugh, I'm sorry you're going through this. It's not a "boundary" for him to simply stop speaking to you without any way to retrieve your belongings. It doesn't matter if the things are valuable or sent…
It sounds like it's the anxious speaking to me. You didn't do anything wrong, but you're assuming she's ignoring you when her circumstances just might have changed. New job, new life stressors, sudden…
Oh no, I am so sorry :( this is really hard
This is really creepy. My first thought is that (like others have said,) is that you’re immature. To be honest, if you have a lot in common and the temperament of a 20-something year old I wouldn’t ta…
This is really a huge win for you. Growth and change never happens over night and you should be proud you stayed on course and took this step.
Personally I wouldn't end it as long as she texted me with enough time to confirm whatever needs to be confirmed. Like today is a Tuesday and you're trying to plan a date for this weekend, what does i…
This is really sweet to read. I second that it helps to have a significant other who listens and understands and supports 🥹
This is really exciting. If you’re comfortable with it, I’d just go with the flow and see where the evening takes you! I hope you have a ton of fun if you go!
It’s not a lack of enthusiasm, he’s actively trying to introduce shame to something that you really enjoy because *he* doesn’t enjoy it. This is really shitty behavior and he needs to do some intros…
This is really getting into dangerous territory. Please be careful. I’m so sorry you’re going through this.
I understand what you’re asking now after thinking about it, and yea, this is a tough one. I don’t want to even answer because this is really hard.
This is really it. I live in an American city where you must have a car but if public transport is good where OP is then I can see that being no big deal. Neither is height Income, however, is an iss…
Comment removed - as it is one of the most flaming things you can do here, we do not allow people to call other users narcs unless we have solid evidence that this is really the case.
This is really cool. I will think on this today.
Probably someone he had an affair with who has gone rogue and he doesn't want to tell the wife Thats if this is real which it probably isnt as OPs account has literally nothing else on it, and they h…
This is really clever!
I'm sorry that this struck nerve a nerve with you. I think it's very condescending to say it's stupid. It's not mild and it can be a very painful condition when there is a breakout. Some people are im…
What if he has a brain tumour. I’ve read so many posts on reddit and personally know of a person who went through something similar. All of a sudden the person changes their personality, starts respon…
Maybe not “I can relax”, because again that requires a track record of consistency. But more like “so far, this seems promising. If he keeps this up, if this is really who he is, this is for real”. Bu…
