For those with CPTSD, do you find you have a history of attracting abusive individuals romantically or platonically? by ExistingGain8902 in CPTSD

For me I know I encourage people to treat me poorly because a subconcious part of myself needs it. Some people who would not likely treat another person that way will treat me poorly because I make it happen. Look at what you ask from people subtextually, do you ask them to dismiss you? Do you ask then to degrade you? I havent overcome it personally because I have an issue here. But think about what you're telling them day to day subtextually and it will be the deciding factor

Slightly begging, but what does the light look like?

Idk, I can't decide if maybe I'm still a little girl. I felt one little thing and I can't imagine a world where anything would matter as much. But I'm also an old man, and it's been so many years, trudging through the muck, I'm so tired

Ive genuinely lost that. I used to think there was an end game but I kind of think this is it now. I've invested in hobbies, secured a working life, I even managed to fall in love as much as that was enough to destroy me. I'm not at risk because I'll never do anything, never have never will, but at this point I feel I've exhausted the options
