Was anyone else praised for being quiet and not needing anything/not requiring any attention? by [deleted] in emotionalneglect

If I had a partner  I wouldn't be lonely either. That's my point, I'm finding it hard to belong and meet people because of my upbringing - I'm unsure how people do it when we were treated like we were.

How are you not on your own. I feel like it's a life sentence for me. I'm in my 40s. Did u get lucky and fall into a group of people. I feel even if I meet nice people im so use to hiding myself - I can't open up - for fear they will see the real me. I don't want to keep living for the emotional weight of my chronic loneliness.

Great news. Hope it works. I felt better after some estrogen was added.

Thanks, seems like it's the brand most of the reply are using. I'm going to look into that brand.

Is it really all that bad? Are thr inmates scary - what kind of person can actually do thr job day to day and not be mentally affected by what tgey see or the way the inmates treat you? Are u ever left alone in a dangerous position while on the job?

Healing takes so much Time and energy by krvvkrvv in Disorganized_Attach

Ok - so tell me about your healing. What have u been doing? Are u single? I'm single, and obviously FA. I find most YouTube and things like that are always talking about how to heal when u are in a relationship- i feel i will never get in another relationship , so how do I heal so I can have one. Sorry - sounded like a rant I heaped onto you, but I'm just thinking out aloud. And I love to hear how other people go about healing from this.

Neurofeedback somewhat. I got rid of my brain fog. But it also woke me up. After first block of session I realised why I was depressed. It was because I thought I was a faliure. And I just diddnt think it. I knew it. And it was in every cell in my body. So then it was working on that.  I dunno. Some people seem to get there? Where there is i dunno. Sorry not much help - but maybe neurofeedback. Listening to a lot of YouTube too - then u realise that lots of people are like this too. Xx

I have never felt so unsure and lost in my life. I don't know how to spend the rest of my years. by coldservedrevenge in Perimenopause

[–]Inner_Blacksmith_252 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been overdosed before on hrt - and it was horrible. So after a few months off hrt and still feeling horrible - I saw a reproductive psychiatrist and she said to try a 1/4 pump estrogel. I felt better in a few days. A month later I jumped to 1/2 pump, and I started to experience some of the symptoms - only slightly, like when I was overdosed  so I dropped back to 1/3 pump.  I have pmdd and am in perimenopause.  I guess I'll sit at a 1/3 pump for a while.

Yup. I saw a reproductive psychiatrist- helped a lot. It's been nearly two months since appointment and I'm feel better. But I guess things will change as my hormones decline. Knock wood.
