    chronic emotional numbing subsiding

    Unfortunately, before I managed to overcome my emotional dysregulation, I was nasty to people. So everyone backed off or have just decided not to speak to me again. I don't blame them one bit. Just so glad I found the keto diet because I couldn't do it without it.

    chronic emotional numbing subsiding

    @Susan Jane , I hope your feeling better after the ECT. I get why its frightening. I go into the local newsagents and I had a nice conversation with one of the staff today. It makes me feel like I have some connection. If I go out I try to speak to people in the shops or wherever else i might...

    chronic emotional numbing subsiding

    How do you let people get to know you

    I think going really slow is good. I do the same by leaving immediately after structured activities. Try not to get caught up in small talk or everyone going for a drink afterwards etc . I also think if gives you back some confidence by knowing you don't have to tell anyone anything. Like a...

    Childhood chronic ignorement, can anyone relate?

    I think I relate to part of it. Sometimes its like being invisible to yourself. It does feel odd when people act like you are a person too. Once i went for a neurology appointment knowing they were giving me the results of a scan with the possible outcome i had a brain tumour. It didn't occur to...
