This is so relatable. I’m alone most of the time and I love being with myself but I know it stems a lot from being let down by others.

Nobody came to save me. I saved myself. It has made me hard. It has also made me resilient. I always got me if no one else does.

no but for real, I started just being kind to myself in my head for the first time and tell my why I started balling? I was just cleaning out my car and thought I'd be funny to thank myself like "thank you for cleaning out the car iszzy, it's gonna feel so much better, you're doing a good job" and "thank you for making that breakfast this morning iszzy, that sandwich was really good" and I started crying so hard I couldn't even keep cleaning, I had to sit down and cry about how mean ive been to myself for so long until I started laughing about how ridiculous it is to be crying about being kind towards myself

Trusting people feels like a form of self harm. They don’t have capabilities to figure out problem. They will let me down if I trust them.?

I was never more lonely then when I was in a relationship, or around a bunch of people. And I was drained most of the time, never receiving the same energy I gave to others. I feel so much happier after solo traveling to 8 countries, making content for strangers who support me more than people in my own life, and barely speaking to other people on a regular basis. Never been happier

YESSSSSSS. I am safest when I’m alone. I don’t have to perform, nor do I have to meet any expectations. It gets real lonely….

I read once that when birds land on a branch they don’t trust on the branch not to brake but they trust in their ability to fly if it does brake ……something like that

As a kid, I learned I was my only source of support and relied on no one where any sort of emotional or mental need was necessary. I pretty much expected abandonment, honestly, and took comfort in writing things down for myself. I’d have back-and-forth convos in my journals as a means of finding support where I didn’t have any. As an adult, many people comment on how safe they feel around me and I think part of that is because I learned from a young age to hold understanding and compassion in a way most people don’t because they didn’t experience that sense of deep aloneness. It has translated into me rarely seeking support and pretty much shrugging love or friendship out of the equation, but I do feel privileged to have the ability to make people feel safe, make myself feel safe, and I don’t know if I’d be able to do either of that if I hadn’t been burdened with such a sense of loneliness and emotional abandonment as a child / teen. It’s a double-edged sword because I wish I had someone to just give a damn about me, but also, I like being a person anyone can approach in times of need knowing they won’t be abandoned or left alone.

The gap for me, is not being able to show up for other people because I don’t know how and it’s gotten to a point where I don’t know how to maintain interpersonal relationships well even if I want to try.

When meditating once…I seen my little self sitting on the porch of my grandparents home (my favorite place that has now burned down) they had a very long driveway that I walked to get to her. I put my hand out and said “come with me”…she said “where are we going?”. I pointed to the hill on the road where future me was standing there waiting and I said “with her”. Past present and future me all together as the whole self. Such a simple vision that absolutely rocked me.

It’s such a headfuck to be hyper-independent but still occasionally want human interaction 😒

same here, whenever i have a crisis i act as my own therapist, it's so bizarre because i could be saying something that truly comes from trauma and i have this inside voice that instantly says what i think a therapist would say in order to make sense of the thought, but in a gentle doctor-ish way

I never even feel the need for comfort from others because I’ve deprived myself of it my whole life

I look at it from my ancestors perspective. They never had the opportunity to be there for themselves because they were forced into certain circumstances. Because of women’s rights I can take care of myself by myself, and I think that is a huge blessing.

Girl when you started to say envisioning yourself doing these things actually made me cry 🥺 the thought of myself giving me the love that I actually need just brings up so many emotions

yup. at times, I think 'id love to have a healthy partner's but I get too nervous of going through emotional pain and abuse again. So I convince myself it's better than risking my peace all over again.

Yeah, no one to misunderstand you, no one to let you down, no one to reject you. But also no one to listen to you, no one to surprise you with their effort, and no one to embrace you. It’s a paradox and hard to break through sometimes!
