i made a new friend a few months ago and he talks about his trauma to me kind of a lot. i don't really want him to stop, at least not completely bc i'm happy that he feels like he can talk to me and if it helps him i'm happy to help. but i get kind of uncomfy sometimes because i don't know what to say in response?
i just feel incredibly sad for him when he tells me about that stuff, n so i say things like "it's horrible you had to go through that" etc. but i've said that so many times already, n i just don't know what else to say?? sometimes i'll say that i can't understand why anyone would want to do that to him and just try to validate his feelings but i really don't know what i should be saying. does anyone have any advice
he's in therapy btw so he's already getting help for it
