Just had a really awful nightmare ๐Ÿซ โœŒย Iโ€™m kinda terrified rn ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย  ย ย I am also really tired but i know if I go back to bed another one will come rolling.. ย like, that was so stressful๐Ÿ˜–

Sorry about that. Been having a rough month in relation to nightmares. Itโ€™s always reliving past events that I wish I could forget. My sleep schedule is destroyed. But hey, like I always say, โ€œWhy be an Early Bird or Night Owl when you can just be an Insomniac and have the best of both worlds?โ€

Yeah. Reflective is a positive way of putting it and I like that. I tend to think of it as over analytical but I normally think negatively so I guess I didnโ€™t think about using a word with a positive connotation, so thank you for that. That makes sense, and Iโ€™m trying to figure out at least most of the triggers we have as a whole but for now even the ones I understand are difficult to avoid. I am. I live in the US and when you go in for a physical exam, they make you do a mental health screening so Iโ€™d get it through my doctor and my mom doesnโ€™t have to approve it. Iโ€™m homeschooled ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ. Yeah youโ€™re correct about that. I think itโ€™s just a habit at this point to be pessimistic because I had to protect people before, and now I donโ€™t if that makes sense? Theyโ€™ve been good though, and I was outside all day yesterday and I think that helped with my mental health so Iโ€™m doing good today

I'm glad to hear you had a good day on Wednesday. It's funny how being outside can have such a positive impact on how we feel. I sometimes love to just lie on the ground and watch the clouds - somehow gives me inner peace and makes me feel calm.ย 

It's good to hear that your doctor does the mental health screening and your mom doesn't have to approve it. Do you already have an appointment for the physical exam?ย 

It's really interesting that you've been seeing it as over analytical and again I thought that was such a reflective thing of you to notice. It sounds like you're now seeing your skill as a more positive thing. I have noticed that you've mentioned in a few other posts yesterday that you are feeling lonely and a bit down on yourself. Is that right? I get the impression that you're finding it difficult to notice what a wonderful, talented person you are. ย That made me think whether you might want to try to reframe some of those thoughts you've been having, to more positive thoughts, like we did with over analytical and reflective. Do you think that might be helpful and do you want to give that a go? Let me know if you do and I can give you a few suggestions what you can try.ย

Thank you again for all of your time and replies, I really appreciate it ๐Ÿ’•

It really is nice. It started raining so I canโ€™t really go outside now, but I like sitting by my window in my room and listening to the rain. Lovely feelings from that ๐Ÿฅฐ

I donโ€™t have an appointment, but I know itโ€™s gonna be soon. She wants to list me as an official employee for her business, and because Iโ€™m a minor still, the laws in California first and foremost require a physical exam. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ

Thank you. I think that can be chalked up to the fact that I spend too much time in my head, whether that be a good thing or a bad one. Sometimes it has self reflection and why I should be proud of myself for how I handles a situation or it can be me dwelling on something my mom yelled at me about 2 months ago and Iโ€™m still hurt by it because I donโ€™t want to confront her about it, yโ€™know what I mean??ย 

Yeah I do think thatโ€™s an accurate statement for me. I think itโ€™s a weird grey area as far as noticing my strengths, because I feel really bad about what Iโ€™m doing wrong all of the time and how much trouble I am to be around, but I genuinely like helping people. I know what Iโ€™m good at and push to do 110% because I know that in some cases, Iโ€™m the most qualified for the task at hand. I keep contradicting myself and Iโ€™m starting to think this is why Iโ€™m so tired all of the time . So much internal conflict over what it is I expect of myself ๐Ÿ˜…

I am interested in trying that, but Iโ€™m afraid I might still be really resistant to the idea that I deserve to be praised for anything. I get stuck in this place where it just feels like no matter how much good I do, my bad actions and interactions still far outweigh them. Iโ€™m willing to try though.

i also relate to so many things in your above post, especially the reflecting-mind part. And i pushed myself so hard, tried to control myself all the time, that I broke๐Ÿ’”I dont want that to happen to you, so please be freeโค๏ธ

If only you could see DarlingDino, it is humorously outrageous that your 'bad' could ever outweigh the massive boulder of your pure, unmistakable good. We think that we need to always be doing more, and yeah It's great to be doing stuff but we actually don't need too. There is a time to embrace, and to refrain. When we refrain, it activates something ๐Ÿ”ฅ. Just for a moment or two, even though it is one of the hardest things to do. We can just be what we already are, even if it may not be 'perfect' by our definition. And that is perfectly ok

Haha,, another thing... we have in common that I just connected.

I think you said that you have some Puerto Rico in your blood, and I actually have some El Salvador in MY blood. I just don't really identify with it cuz i can't say I was super influenced by it with my parents but I still count it!ย  But WTH! How is this a thing with us๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿคญ

I used to think, one time when it was a cold day(maybe in sept?) i was looking at traffic, and imagined.ย  It was raining, I was walking through the crosswalk and a car almost hit me, they said sorry and drove off.

Also, I had to see my dad every other weekend(he legit did not even wanna be involved with us i swear-๐Ÿ˜’) And I would look out the back of his car window, feeling deadย  but crying on the inside as I watched the image of my helpless mom fade away as we went onto the highway.

I have car trauma, also from when my dad was arguing violently with my brother while my dad was driving and I could not leave I just had to listen but was also ignored, I thought my dad was gonna crash the car or smth๐Ÿ˜ฐ
