If someone has cPTSD, please don’t tell them that if they feel anxious about their relationship, or are trauma triggered, that it’s not love, because love is peaceful and calm.

That’s gaslighting.

If you are in a trusted place in their life, help them break down the fears and anxieties and find the roots—be they childhood trauma triggers that aren’t about a current toxic relationship, or be they problematic concerns about their current interactions.

But don’t make them second guess their intuition, that just reinforces their trauma. Help them connect to their intuition and not fear through a thought and heart exploring process, and reinforce their intuition when they settle on it.

Anxiety in relationships happens for at least 50% of the not so securely attached folks in the world. More than HALF of us.

Many of those quotes are far too simplistic and overgeneralized. Let alone sometimes privileged, as life is harder for some than others, right from the start.

I’m no one’s favourite. I’m the back up. The one they go to when they have no other options. I sit and walk behind them and pretend that I am cared about but I’m not. And that really hurts.

“It was just a small, stupid, unimportant social blunder, why am I feeling so miserable, embarrassed, and consumed by shame over it?!?”

Because that sort of thing is literally what people often get bullied for from preschool through high school, and even if it wasn’t a type of bullying you ever experienced directly, you probably saw it happen, and definitely internalized that this sort of behviour is dangerous and will get you targeted. It’s completely understandable that it’s making you feel so scared and uncomfortable given these circumstances, why wouldn’t you?

On the plus side, this is absolutely the sort of situation where figuring out the ‘why’ of it gives you a strong advantage in pushing back against those thoughts and feelings when they do happen. :)

In every situation it’s always me who gets affected. I’m the one hung up on it. I’m the one with the constant ache in my chest. I’m the one stuck in the past with what happened on constant replay. The other people involved don’t give a fuck. They move on and don’t even think about me. Yet I’m fucking stuck and I never stop hurting over what happened.

[my-road-to-existence-deactivate]

I don't want to be myself anymore. And it's like I wanna run away from myself, but I simply just can't. I hate myself. I fucking hate myself. It makes me feel really lonely, because no one really gets me and I can't find different words to explain how devastating and hard it is to feel like this everyday. I am scared of these feelings. I am not just tired, it feels like I have been defeated.

The reason why people find reality to be very overbearing and spend a lot of time in their very limited life trying to escape it is because reality is restricting. In reality, you can’t go back in time to start over. You have to take responsibility for your failures and need to put in effort to achieve success..

But when you do things like watch a movie, play a video game, or do drugs , you’re able to enter into a delusional state in which you’re free from the restrictions of reality. You can fast forward and rewind whenever you want. You can start over and wipe the slate clean of all your mistakes.

The easiest way to obtain happiness is to escape reality. That is why entertainment is such a huge part of human culture. But the sad truth is that no one can escape reality. Sooner or later, it’s going to come out of nowhere to bite you in the ass. That is why those who spend more time focus on reality is often better off than those who spend most of their time indulging in delusions. - Unknown

"I know you feel broken, so i wont tell you to have a wonderful, great day. Instead i whisper these simple words to you 'just hold on' As the darkest days of grief start to get less, the sun will rise again for you." - Zoe Clark - Coates

2:36 AM

" 2 am is for the poets who can't sleep because their minds are alive with words for someone who's not there. For the alcoholics drinking themselves a into amnesia to forget someone who had left. 2 am is not for the lovers asleep in each others arms. Its for the lonely, the ones who are in love with the loved but are not loved in return."

"Depression is when you don't really care about anything. Anxiety is when you care to much about everything. And having both is like hell."
