If I had a nickel for every time I shared what I thought was a universal experience but only plural people found it relatable, I’d have enough money to go get therapy about it.
I have no idea what I’m doing and you can’t stop me.

Legit have gone through this myself. Sometimes during intense emotional moments where I'm struggling, I'll suddenly switch demeanor entirely to being perfectly calm and have to take a few minutes to remember exactly what just happened.
Omg same. And while I’m trying to remember there’s this confusion and feeling of “what happened this time?” And sometimes “what did you do?” As a thought being directed at me.
Yep!! Suddenly learning there are gaps in my memory of things that literally just happened is something I'm familiar with.
Yay figuring things out and then not sure how to unpack them or what to do with that knowledge!! 🙃
“active trauma responses” is a very fun bingo card/blot test
