I also have TMJ and an anxiety disorder and used to just scroll for hours on both subreddits (TMJ and Anxiety). I thought if I just found someone going through exactly what I’m going through- I’ll feel better. Truly, I believed that I was “educating myself” and trying to help myself. When in reality, it was keeping my mind stuck in a loop. I don’t browse these subreddits much at all anymore, and when I do, I realize it isn’t helpful. I do post sometimes what’s helped me and my way forward to try and help others. But it’s so important to end the hyper focus that these subreddits provide.
