What Can One Expect?

[Bloomy]

@Exedra pity drowns people. Emphaty can uplift.

When it comes to the ditto - I guess I dont have strong enough panzer for people that doesnt acknowledge my reality. Maybe its also cause what I felt and how I were was denied my whole childhood and until I cut contact with my family? It triggers me as written above into the shameful corner and its dificult for me to handle. Thats why I also needed to make this thread. Im not so used to be allowed to own what I feel. I become insecure if maybe people are right to talk to me in certain ways. Or if Im right that its not. Or If Im vunerable and cant take rightful critcism. Im trying to learn to be able to grow.

Bloomy,

Yes, pity drowns, empathy uplifts. While my issues have become a resent development in my life, I have had far too much pity by those who do not understand the horror of the actions of others, and as like you I don't want it nor do I like their attempts. Here in the states it is everyone for themselves and pity is the "premium" paid for being a so called good person, aka I paid $150 for a ticket to feed _____? or I did this or that to help_____ such cause. Empathy is a rare commodity every where in the world, but while new here I have found everyone on this forum will tell the truth and have empathy because they have known, experienced, and perhaps moved forward from the experiences of what you and I are going through.

Yes you do have a strong enough Panzer.
