This is literally why I CANNOT ever believe “no one is paying attention to you” because they are. constantly. and my whole family made this apparent.

Psychology shows that when your nervous system is dysregulated, your brain doesn’t think rationally, it survives. It defaults to the trauma response: fight, flight, freeze, or fawn. That’s why fear takes over. That’s why avoidance feels safer than change. You’re not broken. Your body is just stuck in protection mode. Most of us keep doomscrolling, waiting for one more healing tip or viral video to finally make it click. But that’s not healing. That’s self-soothing through distraction. You can’t rewire pain while avoiding it. Real healing starts when u start facing what your nervous system is trying to tell you. It’s raw. It’s uncomfortable. It’s the moment your brain screams “don’t go there” and you go there anyway. Facing this truth hurts, but it’s the only way to actually get better. If this resonates with you, read Healing Isn’t Pretty by Mira Hartson. It goes deeper than any short video ever could and shows you how to calm your nervous system, break your trauma loops, and finally feel like yourself again.

In all my 31 years I can't believe I hadn't realized this sooner 💀 They really have nothing nice to say about anybody and I 100% internalized that

And that is why I have severe anxiety and literally used to think people were staring at me everywhere I went.

The car ride home from anything we were invited to was just a dissection of everyone’s missteps

Yes! I told my therapist this week that I always feel like I’m being watched, like I’m on the truman show but I KNOW there are cameras and I’m being judged constantly. I remember mentioning something like this to my mother (back when we still spoke) and to add insult to injury, she said something about how arrogant I am 🙄 like, do you realize you created this, woman?! I’m not arrogant, I’m terrified.

My mom used a slur about her best friend in a conversation alone with me when I was a preteen, behind her friends back. It very significantly affected how I managed my own friendships for a long time after that.

YeS!!! I was painfully shy until adulthood because I assumed everyone was looking closely at my clothes, body, mannerisms. everything my mom comments on not so nicely about others.
