  • I don’t really have a clue on what advice to give. I’ll just say, I understand your point of view. I had issues opening up and when I did, it would be a firehose and overwhelm people. The answer, for me, wasn’t to NOT open up. It was to open up more. Let smaller streams out. I had to accept that we all need this. Giving voice to your thoughts is vital. Thoughts have the tendency to build up and seem bigger than they are. When you talk to other people (or something else) it helps you work through your thoughts. It also takes the power back because the thoughts seem less scary when talking to someone else.

    I know your problem was not finding the right person to open up to. I mentioned or something else earlier, because some people are religious and prayer might help. Programmers talk through their issues (at work) with a rubber ducky. Anything would help. Finding another person would be best, but if I can’t find someone to talk to then I go to my ice cave with my penguin buddy, I made up in elementary school.

    Everyone needs a break from this world. We treat each other like shit and many people are selfish and lack empathy. To quote Megan Thee Stallion, “Everybody taking shit probably sucks anyway.”

    Take things a day at a time and try to find like minded people. They are out there. Eventbrite might be a tool you can use to find events you would be okay with going to. They got baby goat yoga near me. I haven’t gone, but being able to hang out with baby goats sounds fun.
