Regret is a poor meal; savor the lesson instead, and let your misjudgements season the mind, not the heart.
I have this issue. I got it explained for me and its 3 parts. 1 part is the chaos/isolation caused me to shut down for protection 1 part is the undiagnosed adhd causing poor memory retention …
Yes to all of this! I am not the most... joyous person to be around. I did EMDR all last year and it brought up a lot of old stuff that I thought I got through. Wrong. It impacted my job heavily. I wi…

What are you doing to manage your poor mental health? Lashing out at someone then apologising but continuing that cycle is just you being abusive. So what are you doing to address your behaviour?
Yeah. Apparently the sub often does things like this, though, especially to survivors of certain kinds of abuse. I've learned in another comment thread here that it's not only narcissistic abuse survi…
Yep. Developing an autoimmune disease as an adult and learning how tied to trauma those are opened my eyes… Emotional abuse is just physical abuse playing the long game. It causes real damage to our n…

Obviously - in fact, that's paraphrasing what the boyfriend said. What's your point? This was the first time he'd brought it up as it seemed news to OP, he hasn't had therapy, and his solution was t…
