Gaslighting yourself

particularly when your anxiety induced insomnia is making you think about stupid hypotheticals- I love being like “im sorry you feel that way even though it’s absolutely ridiculous. Like I’m sure you BELIEVE that someone cares enough to get into the second floor, through multiple locked doors, past your dog that barks at the wind and anyone that so much as approaches the door, and kill you. I just think you might be on your period or something” and then I remember my brain is being a little dumb and actually it’s okay to recognize that anxiety is straight up goofy sometimes

Saying you feel a little haunted instead of anxious/depressed

Like I am sometimes haunted by thoughts and thinking too much can be low key scary

unfortunately most of my fears are perfectly rational and banal

because I simply know too much. But I do also fear that faeries will entice me into their world and I’ll forget that I shouldn’t eat their food because it looks so good and then I’ll become trapped there forever. In my first appointment with my beloved former therapist I told her I don’t like to keep a diary because what if my work is published posthumously against my will like Emily Dickinson or Franz Kafka and she went ‘hmm imagined audience’ as she scribbled notes. Every time I feel an unfamiliar sensation in my body I have to talk myself down from thinking I’m dying but I’ve gotten pretty skilled at beating that one back. I’m still pretty afraid of ovens to this day after seeing my mom light her hair on fire while pulling a turkey out—TWICE!

feelings :/

being seen and appreciated for who i am rather than being kept around out of convenience has truly been one of the most life changing things for me recently. i now have the confidence to use my discernment and make decisions about what is unnecessary and unwanted in my life. thinking about the difference in my quality of life makes me so emotional, i’m just feeling so many things at once. i’m happy but i feel like my youth has been spent feeling subhuman and unworthy. from now on i will love. i will surround myself with it at all times.

abandonment

i really need to work on my overly intense fear of abandonment... the fact that my immediate thought is that someone is mad at me and is going to leave me if they don't look at/like my story is ridiculous especially considering the fact that this person would rather die than hurt me :/ so hard to unlearn after years of being in that state of mind.
