to be entirely candid july was such an insane month for me mental health wise. like i have been to therapy for YEARS and i am only just uncovering that i have the severe fear/guilt that if i am not productive i will be abandoned, and that i have OCD-like 'episodes' (?) that have sent me into psychosis in the past that i just assumed were... normal. and then also realizing that i was like massively fucked with during my senior year in such an insidious way that i never fully got until last month, as i otherwise blamed myself. and that's just a sliver of it? like. shit. psychodynamics really works man. also pro tip don't evade telling your therapist information just because you think it's "normal" if it feels bad because you might just end up saying something that in hindsight is a really unheard of experience
#ask to tag#mare oversharing? they would never#really cannot believe those 'episodes' are abnormal i almost want to poll about it but i'll just take my therapist's word for it#honestly the abandonment fear specifically is so fucking cutthroat and i almost regret bringing it up because it kind of haunts me#girl who has guilt over her privilege and recognizes that this is unbearably stupid but simultaneously has guilt over never being perfect#which is less stupid and actually detrimental but instead she mingles them both to concoct a nightmare unsolvable jigsaw trap#this is going to sound profoundly stupid but i didn't know that this fear of abandonment wouldn't stop causing me fear even after IDing it#like i assumed it'd just stop but nooooo i'm afraid of telling my mom that i haven't applied for a job bc [horrors that are unrealistic]#anyway. did not mean to vent but this is kind of lowkey killing me lol !#just. weird insane month for me leaving me with a lot of new reveltations but a hell of a lot new Issues
