whats extra annoying is i have a memory of being a kid going through some shit and making a choice to suppress my emotions really hard to get through it. i remember thinking at the time that this was probably going to hurt me a lot and be a bitch to deal with when i got older... and i was fucking right. im still working through it and a bunch of related issues, but it seems like theres some hope cause i keep making progress.

Sometimes you get so good at it you don't remember how to turn them back on.

Having 0 feelings was the oddest thing. Once I started feeling something again, it took me a long time not to think I'm actually faking it.

I made that decision in diapers. How do you undo coping mechanisms from that early?

I do regression sessions, mindfulness, I have trained myself (my mind and spirit) to go back to the situation and to change the story. For many things it worked. Some not, but I keep trying new tools,methods ect. Plus, I have noticed that taking some vitamins and supplements help my mental health massively. I digged and search info for nerve systems support, trying to stick on those supplements and have to say it's working for me. Thanks for reminding, going to take them now.

That's the path I'm on. Still struggling with mindfulness and meditation with pretty severe ADHD. Progress is slow but worth it, I'll just keep at it.

I hope you are informed that adhd is from trauma . I can say, that my adhd got pretty under control after years of healing. Many things are just gone and when anxiety comes I know that for me it's sign of : i forgot to take supplements / I have wrote down things that helps me/ I speak to myself.
When it's really bad- I let myself cry and pity myself. after all , went through serious traumatic events since early age, and I understood, that it doesn't matter who is beside me, nobody else can give me the companion as I can give to myself.
I started with Sedona method, later regression, Tony Robbins and many other popular speakers. Now I am in way of understanding, that it's patriarchy system that brought humanity to this level of depression and chaos. So, I create MY small world beautiful. Trying to keep my place clean, listening music, doing crafts. Just trying to do as much things that brings me pleasure. Rest of the world can f*%$@! Them selfs🤣😅 I try to be useful for people who care about me,but- the most important lessons I learned- to take a good care for my needs first. Then I can be good for others. I hug you, you are not alone. Bow go and do something nice for yourself.
