Understand AI use at MyPTSD: all AI use is explained in our AI help page. AI use is by choice here. It exists if you want it, but does nothing unless you choose to use it.
But you are right though. There are millions of ignorant people and some are inevitably going to be around you.
If you know in yourself that they are just ignorant let it go or rather let them go.
And maybe they'll never recognize certain things. They probably Don't realize the impact of...
Personally maybe that depends on customs where you live, but that situation would make me creeper out whether or not it's assault and whether or not you report it or not. Reporting it is either about justice for you of preventing someone from harm. So that has to be your decision.
My own...
Personally I have noticed that if I just push down how I feel it makes it worse.
I tried to conform to how I should be for several weeks now and pushed every feeling I had about it... and now all of a sudden I could no longer control what I needed and had to have a talk with my mother about...
And... I was not wrong. Pushing my feelings down never worked for me. I ended up writing out how I actually feel and have felt for weeks. I wrote for 90 min. And then when I finally know I need to talk to my mother about how certain things function at home, suddenly I blew up.
I mean it wasn't...
That is both right and not. On one hand allowing myself to plan further than 3 days, and to also do some necessary self care like yoga after being depressed for long- all very necessary. But also there are more immediate worries to face and I spend a day not thinking about them thinking I had at...
Yeah... it's kind of been that way for a long time. Usually it's some period in time and then there is lighter period when things are seemingly better for a while. Except now it's been a while, like year and a half to 2 years of things just being relentless. It's exhausting.
I felt okay for like 30sec and allowed myself to have a chill day and plan more than 3 days ahead for a first time in a while, and trust that things are falling in place...and they didn't. And now I feel stupid that I felt safe for a moment. Gotta start over tomorrow and I feel awful.
@Givrali
I can relate. I feel things were so hard I'm at a point where I had to be happy of small progress or I would lose my mind.
However due to all that I'm finding myself forgetting deadlines, having so overflowing drive that my email can be shut down if I don't clean it out, forgetting...
Update:
So me expressing my thoughts after they did theirs actually ended up okay.
Usually if I bite my words I end up feeling worse and then eventually obsessing about fixing things the way the other person wants even if in this case it's not possible.
But I said what I needed to, and they...
I'm having a bit of a hard time. I'm usually so stricktly thought because of trauma how to control my emotions. Tooks me many years to allow people to see me cry and now I am accepting, sort of.
But then I had pushed my anger down and down for survival and it's finally coming out sometimes in...
Does that happen to you? To me it's been in waves. But since I was at a point where I couldn't work and slept 3 hours per night in parts, and had nightmares I remembered vividly, I had been on sleep medication. Plus watching something until asleep. But the medication to keep me asleep for enough...
@abovedown
Not really. Plus I have to travel an hour min changing 2 transports each direction to get to any gym or studio. For now my only option is playing Legos with furniture and doing a bit of ballet at home,
Maybe some walks. Also stupid thing about depression is last summer I was in 3...
@arfie Her own potential but point taken. Though I was not saying the judgement part to be polite. I genuinely don't judge many people as we are all different. Ballet and meeting people of different ages or countries joined by love of something no matter age or background or gender kind of shows...
I get that. I analyze things too. Being self aware can be hard.
I know it doesn't always work from the first try, but still if you see a pattern, sooner or later you can change it possibly. I have changed some of mine. Then again, not really others so who knows...
I hope this is a start of...
