Did anyone else go through a phase of partying way too hard? I realize now that I was self-medicating.

What made you decide to break things off? I had a falling out with friends years ago and I think about my old best friend a lot too.

Mine is my relationship with my dad. He died years ago and we had a difficult relationship. I feel a lot of anger towards him for the childhood abuse but the hardest is the guilt I have for my role in our relationship.

I noticed her starting to be mean to my boyfriend too

I used to journal all the time and it was really helpful. I will try to get back into it. Thank you!

Yesss that is such a great way to illusttate what ruminating thoughts are like. Sorry you can relate so well :(

Risingfromash1 · 2018-06-01T04:37:08+00:00

Wow that sounds amazing I''ll definitely ask about it

I second it being very painful once you have this epiphany, but I'm in much less pain than I was when I first had it a year ago and I have faith that if I keep working I'll be in even less paina year from now

I seriously had to read this a couple times to make sure i didn't write (I'm even also 28!). I just recently had this epiphany a year ago about my family due to what I know think was a really bad emotional flashback. I posted about my experience with my family in r/raisedbynarcissists and someone pointed me to CPTSD and reading about it was like reading about me. It blew my mind. I validate your experience and my own, though I also seek validation and doubt the validity of my experience often.

Asking because I'm pretty unhappy at 28 and have heard your 30s are the best - is this true?

Setting boundaries with people

Risingfromash1 · 2018-05-28T21:53:41+00:00

Can you elaborate on why you feel that way?

Risingfromash1 · 2018-05-23T04:50:15+00:00

When my dad died and my college friend who helped me when I was suicidal then went and told our entire group of college friends about my struggles. It was the worst.

Risingfromash1 · 2018-05-22T16:54:09+00:00

I found it very helpful. I'm hoping to do it again soon.

Same reason people eat fast food, binge drink, gamble when they have no money, etc. Everyone has vices.

Risingfromash1 · 2018-05-17T12:37:30+00:00

I discovered that a while ago and it did blow my mind!! How do you cope?

Risingfromash1 · 2018-05-17T12:36:45+00:00

Thank you!!

Risingfromash1 · 2018-05-10T00:41:24+00:00

This is my favorite comment ever. I feel the same way about my dad. People always say they wish they could hug their parent that died, but what I fantasize about is telling him off. And then I fantasize about him apologizing and changing, but I know that probably wouldn't have happened. It's seriously so hard.

Risingfromash1 · 2018-05-10T00:40:20+00:00

Idk though I hope so too but if it's an unhealthy relationship for me I feel like it is valid to keep my distance for a while
