ConfusedParticipantI guess i am but never knew.. 🙁
ConfusedParticipantYes exactly, like being high for months and then suddenly, boom! everything crashed..
I guess it ends badly 🙁
ConfusedParticipantYes unfortunately we cant tell ourselves how to feel 🙁
Haha i like your analogies. I have to drop the expectations yes, but its like u tasted something good and now u want it back so its difficult.
Do i? I cant trust myself anymore. I mean, spending 9 hours in call with her easily and laughing a lot, discussing things, the old me would see that as a really good sign, but now? Its just not “enough” for me, ugh 🙁
ConfusedParticipantHey Roberta, i will check it out tonight, thank you very much 🙂
Hey anita
We ended up watching a movie and in the first 30 minutes i would keep checking in my mind how much i like her, if im bored, etc and i would get uneasy, but i think i let it pass. We ended up video-calling for 7 hours straight. We laughed a lot, we also talked about some stuff and i told her everything about my black & white thinking, about the avoidance when i wanna text her, she said she feels the same.. think i self-sabotaged a little, tried to push her away and i would realize that i was doing it. She also mentioned something about guys from her job sending her follow requests on social and i got a dry mouth when i heard about it. I think it was jealousy reaction.
Damn, she is exactly the kind of girl i would fall for (and i did but where is it now 🙁 ), the humour, the jokes, her laugh, the playfulness of her character. I don’t realize how everything just fly over my head and i can’t feel elated 🙁
I would also be annoyed by the fact that i wasn’t feeling like the last time in the videocall, which i know is not possible but i still hold such high standards.
ConfusedParticipantHey anita
I think pretty low mood today. We scheduled a movie night with the girl and my avoidance is on full-blast right now but i will still do it, like the other time with the video call.|
I can’t understand why my brain makes her specifically a target..
ConfusedParticipantYes i am trying to focus on the good things now, like bob ross was saying 🙂
Thank you anita, i enjoy talking to you too 🙂
I am gonna go to bed now though, let’s see what tomorrow brings!
ConfusedParticipantGlad your day was better! 🙂
Haha, before all that, i wouldn’t even notice a “calm” day, my life is constantly on edge. Hmm, i’m grateful for a nice payday at work today and a calmer night 🙂
ConfusedParticipantHey anita
I used to be like that before, many nights before going to sleep i would think of what i have and i would feel grateful and happy. Not anymore though 🙁
Today was a sad day full of ruminating but now i am calmer. How was yours?
ConfusedParticipantSome people can do that, they see the positives in almost every situation.
Hmm, like being hopeful?
ConfusedParticipantThat reminds me of a 2pac song!
You are right but the problem with me is i can’t let go of the thoughts, i grab onto them and i analyze them to death. Especially when its for a matter so concerning. I also believe that whatever it is im feeling now, is what im gonna be feeling forever.
Damn, i used to be so romantic, dreaming of finding a girl like her, a connection like that, and now i can’t feel a thing. Life is so unfair 🙁
ConfusedParticipantI hope i get there someday because today feels like hell. Since the time i woke up i’ve been in a bad mood and my mind is now convincing me that i don’t want her and i need to end things, i feel extreme dysphoria and i have no more tears to shed. The idea of me ending things brings me some nausea in my stomach but i am so convinced that i feel nothing. I remember how amazing i used to feel with her before all these happened and its like a distant memory. Such a precious connection that i’ve never felt with anybody else again.
Damn today’s been hard 🙁
ConfusedParticipantHey anita
Yes it’s like i am doing now with my feelings, therapist says i am intellectualizing them a lot, but idk how im doing that..
So what changed after u felt empathy for the little you? Also, you mean the dissociation, shutdown lifting and allowing u to feel?
ConfusedParticipantI think this is the time that i am coming to the same conclusion about what u’re saying, that no person can live up to that. I knew it already, but never actually went through that realization by “experiencing” it. We can only save ourselves i guess
Hmm, how did u reconnect or find that part?
ConfusedParticipantI didnt see your last post before mine.
I suppose its normal but i’ve never given much thought to them. Can/should we change that?
I think i was/am the same as you, feeling alive through romantic relationships. How can we find that balance? Have you found it yet?
Hmm by music? Sadly i feel nothing when i listen to music nowadays 🙁
ConfusedParticipantFor example: i stopped going to the gym because i dont feel the “pull” to do that, i don’t ride the motorcycle because of the same reason. I think getting out of bed is hard because of it too.
