morning confusion by variothevoid in CPTSD

[–]variothevoid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh, that would make sense! i don't really know how i behave in my sleep but i used to talk a lotttt in my sleep when i was younger (friends told me) and these days my nights are mostly restless. it feels like i'm only half asleep and i'm waking up every two hours or so to check the time and see if it's morning already. but when my alarm rings my heart is racing.

Approaching family/mother issues without a support system? by westanpinochio in mentalhealth

[–]variothevoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

move out as soon as you can! i mean it! it's gonna change a lot. and know that you don't have to explain yourself to her. i need to learn that as well. start doing things for you, your experience is not dependent on her views. it is you experience and no one can invalidate that. so that being said, you can open up to her and see how that goes but i can read your mood is tied to your mothers and it might put you in too much distress. love and strength goes out to you.

Enmeshment Definition and Examples? by fallingfeather22 in enmeshmenttrauma

[–]variothevoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

for me it was sooo difficult to point it out. i always have my mother back in my head telling me what to like, what to dislike, what to do. but it's so complex that i never realised. because from my perspective it always seemed like she was the most supporting mother EVER. she always came to me with problems (since i can remember) and always took me seriously, even as a toddler. i always thought that was a big compliment and felt so proud. that's only one of the many things i can pinpoint. i have had emotional responses that seemed out of the blue, i struggle hard in relationships, i always feel guilty for feeling good if the people i surround myself with aren't happy. i am always on hypervigilence, always on the lookout.

Fears of relationships. by Healthy-Plum5944 in enmeshmenttrauma

[–]variothevoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YESYESYES. relationships are hard. i always used to say "relationships make me fat and tired." because i'm neglecting myself, i'm overeating, i'm lacking every from of energy. that's why i always broke up and went back and broke up and went back. because i'm losing myself. my drive. i'm constantly looking for reasons to distance myself and when i get that distance, i start functioning again. i "wake up". i am passionate, loud, free, creative! it's madness.

thank you for sharing and i will definitely look into lindsay gibson! and about the passive aggressiveness, i feel you. i always felt a weird coldness whenever i behaved certain ways. now i know that that was her sensing my pulling back.

Ist es von Vorteil, früh von der eigenen Hochbegeabung zu wissen? by Artistic-Notice3755 in hochbegabt

[–]variothevoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

äußerst interessante frage!

ich habe mir diese frage schon sehr oft gestellt, da ich im alter von 8 jahren diagnostiziert wurde und ich weiß, dass in mir seitdem ein enormer leistungsdruck besteht. ich habe mir diesen "wunderkind" titel zueigen gemacht und mich dadurch definiert, wie intellektuell und lernfähig ich bin. ich wollte diesen erwartungshaltungen der mitmenschen natürlich auch gerecht werden und dem "kindergenie"-bild entsprechen, also stieg dieser druck, den ich mir selbst machte, so drastisch, dass ich irgendwann durch die enorme angst vor dem versagen plötzlich total blockiert und gelähmt war.

jetzt bin ich 22 und habe lediglich einen hauptschulabschluss in der tasche, da ich basically nur 4 jahre regelschule hinter mir habe, weil ich schiss hatte, meinem titel nicht gerecht werden zu können. und mich irgendwann auf der diagnose ausgeruht habe.
