I am so sorry you’re going through this 😔

The last few weeks... months have been rough. I don’t know why I always assumed I have so many friends. As soon as I became a mother and didn’t have energy to give my 100% to listen to these friends, they stopped showing up. It took me back in time. How did I forget? How did I forget my...

That’s all I could think about. I just wanted to be somewhere I could scream. It’s insane how something so primal is considered inappropriate. I have to look into places like that. Usually this anger is so repressed so I hope I can tap into it when I actually go to a space like that.

When I was 9/10 I was sexually abused by a woman who lived in our house with her kids (they didn’t have a place to live in so my father was helping them out). She sexually abused me and groomed for almost two years. I of course grew up with a lot of guilt, shame, sugar addiction, dissociation...

This really hit home. I don’t really have any suggestions tbh I feel that way every single time I dissociate. To know that because of dissociation I can’t even take care of some of the basic things in my life which probably means nothing to people who don’t dissociate... because they don’t even...

I love the fact that you mentioned distraction as coping mechanism. I definitely dissociate if I am not distracted. Thank you for this ❤️

Wow I am so grateful for this. Thank you for sharing all the tips. I also thank you for making me feel like I’m not alone. 🙏 I will share my progress

Ah it’s so frustrating. So no matter what else I do I still use my phone simultaneously. When I am reading, writing, walking, sewing even while working out. I am embarrassed to say even when I am around my baby. It’s something that I have finally accepted as a big problem to tackle :( I need to...

I feel like I have so many questions in this forum. I feel bad asking for suggestions and just venting but here we go. I have been working on my sugar addiction- it’s been alittle over two months and it’s going so well. I am extremely grateful. I also have phone addiction. Just the need to...

Ok so I neee serious help. I am 34 and I am terrified of driving and I am terrified of sitting in the same car with my loved ones. Taxi? I don’t care. I can fall asleep in the car. I used to drive a few years ago. Heard a few scary news. Friend’s husband died in a car accident. A couple of...

Would you believe me if I told you that I just searched sugar addiction on here because I wanted to write about what I am struggling with... only to find your response, reading and thinking hmm lying paste. I’ve read this somewhere. Then scrolling all the way up and seeing my own post/question...

Thank you so much for this! I am starting to make time for friends now and you’re absolutely right.. I can’t expect one person to give me everything. He had a rough childhood and growing up he got used to never express his feelings. It makes him extremely uncomfortable. For him just doing...

Ok I have to get this off my chest. My husband drives me crazy. He’s extremely helpful when it comes to the chores and spending time with our daughter. So he thinks I should be happy. I am happy and grateful even though this is his space and his child as much as it’s mine so really he isn’t...

Thank you for this

My God. I am SO sorry for your son and his wife’s death. I can’t even imagine the pain you must endure. It breaks my heart to know that your grandchildren lost their parents. I wish I could hug them 💔💔💔 I am sending so much love and prayers yours and your grandchildren’s way. Thank you so much...

Thank you for this 💗 how does one deal with it being on your credit for over 7 years? It feels like such a long time

This is very difficult for me to post but I don’t know who else to talk to. I have been struggling with debt since college - I am 34 now. I find it so embarrassing. I haven’t told a single soul how much I actually owe. I’ve experienced dissociation since 2012 and ever since I’ve been wasting...

Thank you so much for sharing your experiences! I definitely have the same emotional triggers. I have come to a point where when I eat sugar I don’t feel anything. You know the act of enjoying every bite? Haha nope I just eat to finish what I have infront of me. I have been working on renaming...

So back in 2013, I started a diet called “ideal protein” and lost 60 pounds. When I got hit my goal weight, my dissociation got WORSE... a lot worse. I would look at the numbers on the scale and couldn’t grasp the idea that I was 60 pounds lighter. I was miserable and dissociated almost every...

Wow! Thank you! This is exactly how I feel. My friends talk about buying a house and I look at them with a blank stare. Like what? It just feels so strange to me. I wake up In the morning and look out my window and see SO much traffic around 6am — people going to work. I don’t know why but it...

hello everyone. I am new here. I am in my 30s and sometimes I feel like I am still a child. Not just metaphorically... but literally. I stopped driving because of my dissociation. I almost never put on makeup even though I am very good at it. I don’t dress any differently now than when I did in...
