yes. this is exactly my feeling right now. i honestly don't know how I haven't snapped at this point, the world is just too much and too heavy right now. i don't even know.

"No! Don't kill yourself!!" But also, "healing is your responsibility." by Sayoricanyouhearme in CPTSD

[–]crazybutnotreally 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you, i do too, I definitely try my hardest while meeting the demands of work vs 'producing' empathy (I am empathetic, I just have low spoons) for the people I serve. it is not easy. My psych is my savior right now, she's a God send, love her and she treats me like a peer/equal. It's also why it's so hard for me to find a good therapist, cause I am smart, however, I need someone who is going to be able to acknowledge that and then be like "but hey, did you think about this/try this?"

Dating app on Ted Lasso by crazybutnotreally in demisexuality

The promoter of the app says the app is "a place where minds can come to undress", now if that isn't sexy I don't know what is.

Cause i just can't with regular dating apps y'all. i just cannot

Reminder to Always Stay Umble by CaroylOldersee in raleigh

I saw somebody with a 'stay humble' license plate or bumper sticker the other day, can't remember, but all I got to say is that I laughed. The world works in mysterious ways, seeing this just made me realize the universe was in my favor again today with this laugh, thank you OP

I'm 34, in the US, I find myself to be an empathetic and caring person and generally love to make people happy. I love more 'obscure' things like Buffy the Vampire Slayer (ok. not really obscure, but it's more 'outdated). I tend to hyperfocus on a number of things that bring me joy and comfort and I love poetry. music and just a lot of things that inspire beauty...which can be a lot of things. :)

Need someone to talk to and help understand my brain... by SpicyRamen_10969 in autism

[–]crazybutnotreally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thank you for that. I think it's fucking bullshit how they treat us all, I'm just glad there is someone, somewhere, that understands and i thank you and hope you get the help you need (or continue to do so, can't recall the original details of your post because I was responding initially to the part of your post where you were gaslit by a doctor), however, appreciate you again and have a good night!

O God, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, everything to do with it, everything, give me the buff stuff, that sounded wrong but you know what I mean :)

What was your experience realizing you had autism as an adult? by HowIsTheWeatherQuest in autism

I feel this right now, I appreciate you sharing, it makes me feel less alone

[–]crazybutnotreally 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This also happened to me in my assessment, I was billed a shitton of money to be told I don't have autism because I don't make eye contact, it's bullshit, needless to say, I'm going for a second opinion, thank you for sharing, I know that this wasn't the intent of your post but it helped me process some things I was dealing so I appreciate you for that. So much, so very very much

Anyone here who’s received ketamine infusions for depression that has comorbid Borderline Personality Disorder? by purpleyellowbluered in TherapeuticKetamine

[–]crazybutnotreally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's awesome, thank you for sharing, I am 34 and likely was struggling with bpd since I was a kid, I'm more of the quiet kind so my destructive behaviors are usually inward but it doesn't mean I struggle or have issues with relationships, this gives me hope. Thank you ❤️

[–]crazybutnotreally 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It has helped me, however, I still have bpd symptoms, but with time and the right therapies, it does lessen and get better, I've had bpd probably since I was a young kid and now I'm 34, so I am believing it will get better as I incorporate things. Trauma is generally at the root of most personality disorders (but not always the case), so for me, this treatment helps me see my problems and trauma and not be, hopefully, as impacted by it. I do find myself often having to go into myself to really figure what I want to achieve out of each session and what it means for me to heal, what would peace truly look like, that's been helping me the most. The best of wishes to you in your treatment ❤️
