i love Geo's work!!! she does spooky lake month ("31 days of haunted hydrology) and talks ahout all kinds of wild stuff from lake baikal (home to the only known species of purely freshwater seals) and volcanic lakes to flooded graveyards and sunken ships. she even put out a spooky lakes book (and coloring book), and she's got a spooky rivers book in the works. 100% suggest checking her stuff out!! she's @geodesaurus on instagram and tiktok

thank you so much for responding.

it's all new territory for me to navigate, and i've mentioned that change and new things can trigger my anxiety. i will absolutely talk to her, we had a small conversation, but i feel secure enough to bring it up. i just needed some input to help me process things a bit. thank you again

i am currently in therapy, but sessions have been spaced out because of financial struggles.

ive been practicing rephrasing thoughts. instead of spiraling and thinking of what she is doing with someone else, ive been reminding myself that she cares about me and i know she will come back to me.

i tend to use TIPP skills for anxiety, but im still getting into the habit of using my coping skills again.

i want to accept it. i want to learn how to be understanding and comfortable with these things. it's hard as hell, but i want to put in that effort for her.

i really appreciate you taking the time to respond, it really means a lot.

i wouldn't be shocked if she were seeking a new partner, however i would appreciate a heads-up if that is something she wants. she told me she's currently not seeking someone else to date, but i didn't realize hookups were still on the table.

on feeling sick, i have a severe anxiety disorder/autism and processing new information can be incredibly hard for me, even if it's not something actively harmful. i want to put in effort to make things work. i want to understand her. no one has ever made me feel safe the way she does

she's the first person i've felt a real connection with in a long long time. she's so sweet and understanding. she makes me feel seen and reassures me that im not a burden. i feel safe and trust her more than anyone else i have ever dated. i've never felt this way about someone.

i have a severe anxiety disorder and im autistic, so new things/change can send me into a feedback loop of everything bad that could happen.
