I've been going through an extremely hard process right now (getting ghosted and replaced by a close friend over weeks, after I inevitably wasn't good enough to keep up with her) and I spent the weekend in a devastating emotional flashback that knocked me out. I found this subreddit last night and have been reading through every single thread. I can't express enough how soothing and claming it's been to see myself in so many of the struggles here, to watch people discuss their feelings around what they're going through, the advice and sheer strength these irradiate. It's not fixing the pain or my complex trauma, but it felt like a relief to see myself reflected in so many others. Thank you all for being so vulnerable and open to sharing so many painful experiences 🙏
