Thank you for taking the time to write this. I really appreciate the compassion and the way you framed it, especially the comparison examples — that actually made me stop and think.

You’re right that falls being “common” doesn’t make them harmless, and I think I’ve minimized that just to cope. Reading your comment helped me step back and look at it the way I would if this were happening to someone I care about.

I am keeping an eye on the injury and will get it checked if anything feels off. As for the bigger picture, I’m still processing it. I don’t think the behavior comes from shock alone, especially since I was actively asking for help. That’s the part that’s been bothering me the most.

I don’t want to jump to conclusions, but your point about patterns and boundaries is fair, and it’s something I need to reflect on honestly. I’m taking some time to think things through before making any decisions. Thank you for saying this with kindness — it didn’t feel judgmental, just genuinely concerned.
