i hope you learn to cope well with the dissociation, have u ever tried affirmations just to keep yourself reminded and grounded? <33

thanks!! i'm working on it, progress is slow and uncertain but i'm getting there. i've actually never looked into affirmations as a coping skill but i think i've been doing something similiar on my own. there are a lot of things i've been doing to soothe myself and cope from a young age i've later came across as skills recommended to cope with my illnesses, it's pretty interesting tbh.

i talked to my sister, it was pretty much the first time this year. i told her about getting diagnosed and i think it went pretty good. we talked about me finding a therapist and she kinda made me realise all over again that my profile is gonna be difficult af to work with for a therapist, with all my diagnoses + undiagnosed symptoms. and i already know there are no therapists specialising in my symptoms in the country so this is gonna be an adventure

thats actually really good to hear that you've learnt ways to cope by yourself, i hope that gives you the same faith and pride it gave me bcos im really proud of you <33

im glad you decided to reach out to someone too bc that shows a lot of strength in dealing with any disorders, and im sorry that therapy in your country isnt very geared towards your diagnoses but im sure theres someone there that can help you cope a bit better at least! im wishing u a secure and hopeful journey in overcoming your symptoms <3

thanks for being so nice 💕 i've been trying to get back in touch with friends and family after a few months of radio silence of my part. i just kinda dropped everything when i started realising and slowly coming to terms with my newest discoveries regarding my mental health. i've also been thinking about taking up writing and photography again and would like to post some of it online but i need to figure out how to stay safe and not give out too much sensitive information so that it could be held against me

thank you for the kind words (: its great that youre reaching out again and i hope theyve all be understanding about your absence. and you should definitely dive into some hobbies, maybe make a blog for it or an instagram that has no ties to you personally, find an alias etc. im sure you'll be able to put some amazing work out there <3

i know how it is when u kinda forget to care for yourself for a period of time. i always try to make it stick but end up going weeks on end without showering, only eat junk, don't get out etc. i've been so so so lucky my fiancee has been taking care of me for a long time now. i hope it gets easier for u <3

i posted a couple weeks ago on here about how i tested positive for covid and ever since then i've been so fatigued and tired like i've never experienced before... it really sucks. i talked to my doctor and he said that these "post covid" symptoms last on average about 10 weeks but he's had some ppl that tested positive in july who still report feeling like this. idk it really sucks because it's affecting my work and really just everything.
