People see someone who's different and think they already know the story. They don't.

There was a time when I hated my life so much that I tried to end it more times than I want to admit.

Therapy made me realize something I never understood before. I wasn't just afraid of losing the people I loved. I was terrified of it.

So my subconscious came up with what it thought was a brilliant survival plan: push people away before they could leave. Treat them badly. Act cold. Convince myself they didn't really matter. If I never got attached, then losing them wouldn't hurt ... right?

It wasn't who I was. It was fear pretending to protect me.

The sad part is that the people I cared about the most probably got the worst version of me, while I kept telling myself it was for my own good.

I'm still learning, still healing, and still unlearning years of survival mode. But at least now I know the difference between protecting myself and sabotaging myself.

Has anyone else ever realized that something you thought was just "your personality" was actually a coping mechanism? I'd genuinely like to hear your story.

Men go out of their way to make me feel valued and special
I am appreciated and adored by men
I am normalising being treated like royalty by men around me
I am self-focused and still attract men who show up excellently
I am open to receiving love, support and gifts from men freely

So I work in mental health in an acute ward.

I think im suffering from compassion fatigue and vicarious trauma after seeing patients self harming or tying ligatures.

Best to leave or stay put?

Your body is your first home. If it breaks, you can't move out.

Fuel it with care. Strengthen it with movement. Protect it with rest.

How you treat it is how you live inside it.
