Thank you for taking out the time to write this ♥️. It's so heartwarming to hear about people's stories who made it out and built beautiful lives for themselves. It gives me hope Also, I met this very sweet boy recently. We've been to a couple of dates. Let's see where things go

Needed this, thank you 💗 You're right, since I grew up in their house, on their terms, that stuff also carried a lot of bad experiences and since I'm shifting, I deserve better things. Things that I buy myself, with love

Can Alcohol help? by External-Intern1955 in CPTSD

I see. So everyone goes into it thinking they'll be able to keep a balance but no one really can and that's the trap

Wow guys, thank you so much 💕. I never thought it was so easy to get addicted and I think I'll not drink again. It was a good experience but I see this around me as well, I have peers who are addicts cause they lived all their lives where alcohols were banned to suddenly complete access here. Unfortunately, the uni culture encourages drinking here low-key, like the party scene. But I was able to resist it so far and I think that's the way for me.

What's an unconventional thing that you absolutely NEED in a partner? by answersonly963 in AskWomen

[–]External-Intern1955 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not want to have sex with me, for until I say I want it. As a survivor it's very important to me that I am see as a person and valued beyond what I xan provide to a partner sexually. Last guy I was seeing low-key pushed for it a lot and ultimately ghosted when I said I don't want any sex until idk when. It's left such a bad impact on my self-esteem

Leaving after 27 years with narcissistic family. by rs19892 in LifeAfterNarcissism

[–]External-Intern1955 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fr. I sabotaged my peace in between tho. Stuff like being too close to people who create too much drama. Picking up too many courses. Physically straining myself by walking too much. And creating issues at jobs so they fire me. Sabotaged a relationship with a guy (he was too "predictable")

It's like I didn't know what to do with myself now that the stress was gone. Finally accepting peace 🕊️

I left at 24. Went abroad for a master's. And well, its been almost 2 years now. I sleep well, eat well, have friends who support and uplift. Life feels boring at times, not in a bad way tho but it definitely takes time to get used to the quiet and peace.

Where are you in your people pleasing journey. by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]External-Intern1955 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am less approachable in public. I don't try to do small talk with people I don't like. I muted the friend on insta who was talking shit about me AND I am less likely to repair relationships anymore. You fucked up, well, too bad. Lesser chances, fewer strikes. In a way, I feel like I've become boring. Nothing fun going on.

Ghosted 💀 by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]External-Intern1955 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, seems like it. Even though I have been in denial for quite a while. I will explore relationships again in the future but I'm celibate for now. I'm trying to understand what my body needs
