I’m a fan, Thomas ✌️ (just wanted to show my appreciation, giping tou would like the appreciation)
anitaParticipantYou are quite a mystery to me, me.
Positively a mystery, I mean. I wonder 🤔 if you’ve been a mystery for her as well (“left her puzzled”).
Maybe you leave before you explain..?
anitaParticipantHey Confused:
Yes, I was diagnosed with major depression and was on antidepressants as well as on other psychiatric drugs for 17 straight years. Got off all the drugs 13 years ago.
If you take antidepressants, I hope it will be short term.
“read the meaning”- please explain what you mean..?

You may get a cick out of it: during my Dec 31 get together at the local taproom, I talked to a Polish woman (who has a strong accent) about you living in Poland and in 🇷🇴 (I am using my phone and these emojis show up).
Well, this attachment style 😎 (lol) is not something you were born with, it’s the way you instinctively adapted to what you were born into, the emotional alone-ness, the isolation, the lack of space of your own (having to minimize your computer screen- and emotions- when “invaded”.
There’s healing to be done, just enough to make a breakthrough.
I like 👍 how you spent your Christmas 🎄 Eve. I am nursing a cold for days now, 😕, hoping to be finally done with it soon!
About healing.. what’s the last 🤔 we talked about it, do you remember?

anitaParticipantHey Condused:
“Tring to find my feelings”, you wrote. What an interesting choice of words.
Trying to find your lost good 👍 feelings you mean, right? Because you do have the negative ones.
If only there was a magical ✨️ ay to bring back the positive ones!
(I am using my phone, so emojis to match my words keep showing up 🙂).
I know depression all too well 😪. Reminds me of The Nothing in the 1984 movie “The Never Ending Story”, it’s the destructive force that takes over when hopes and dreams 💔 are gone.
I wonder 🤔 I’d you’d enjoy the movie even though it’s old/ low tech.
In this fantasy movie, a child warrior and his horse, well, his horse 🐎 gets stuck in the “swamp of depression”. Lots of symbolism in the movie.
One day, and I hope sooner than later, you will no longer be stuck in depression hopes and dreams will return! 🙏

No human being us meant to be alone and isolates because humans are, as you know 🙂, social animals.
So, Alone and Isolated (AAI) is not an option long-term when it comes to mental health.
If your people are no longer your people, find other people. Think of humanity as a bug family, some are good family, some are not. Find the good ones, 👍, or good-enough.
I wonder 🤔, did both your parents favor your brother all along, from the beginning?
