thanks đź’• and yeah i'm actually being diagnosed with something with dissociation as a main symptom. still wanted to do the ranty rant even though i know what's up
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 adventureÂ
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 <33Â
