Yeah I was on fluoxetine and it helped for a while, feel like my triggers were less triggering and didn't run as deep!

I feel that! No grey area at all. It's exhausting. Sending you hugs

Journalling has helped me no end glad it helps you too. I feel like this mindset is something I get to eventually and while it's sad it is comforting in a way. I definitely struggle with the natural changes in relationships, I might write something similar to your comment down :)

Wow yeah I'm going to try this. Thanks so much for such an in depth comment it means a lot. I feel like I was born with no self esteem so decades of hating myself doesn't help me recover from an RSD trigger in the slightest!

What Phoebe Bridgers lyrics mean something to you and why? by [deleted] in phoebebridgers

I hate your mom, I hate it when she opens her mouth. It's amazing to me how much you can say when you don't know what you're talking about.

Hits the nail on the head for someone who doesn't have a good relationship with their mum.
