I cant watch certain shows or movies if they're messy for the head or depressing cuz I'll literally not be able to recover for months. Like I dont think ppl are able to understand this or realize how this makes me feel. Ik I'm valid for just protecting my own mental well being but sometimes certain ppl in my life act like I'm an asshole for refusing to watch these shows. Like... I promise it isnt because I hate you. I just mentally cant handle it. Or like one time my sister was watching a show with a character like me in it and she started shitting on that character. I'm still trying to cope with that. Like I just look like I have it under control but I really dont. I remember a sentence she said but literally it was so mf triggering to me. I lost my mind and I cried for a whole week. I dont remember anything for a week after that incident.
you might want to like talk to somebody because I don't think this is a normal experience <\3???
