Re: anon/anon
Do you see what you are saying about yourself? Do you see what this person is doing to you? It sounds like this person is emotionally abusive. Reread those words as though I were saying them to you. You are stronger than to let this person define you and dictate who you do or do not get to talk to. You are your own person, and you need to stand on your own without this negativity weighing you down. You know this. This is all eroding your ability to love yourself. [...] And you need not apologize for unloading on me, total stranger. Most of my friends will not talk to me about anything substantial, and it is nice to have someone confide in you for once.
Did your friend help you with your problem? It is healthy to have a respectful fear of the unknown. But it is better now? [...] I do not know what specifically is being removed, only that something is happening. It feels like the dull buzz of a low voltage current to me. Not entirely unpleasant.
