Re: Ask for advice

[(Anonymous)]

Thanks for the advice. It honestly wasn't bothering me too much, until I started writing again because of the strong association I had with them about it.

I think the most upsetting thing, isn't that I was ghosted tbh. It was that it was really out of character for the person I thought I knew. Also really random. I can't help but wonder what was behind it all, because it truly blindsided me. And it's more upsetting now that I know I'll never get some sort of answer. It made me really evaluate how I talked to other people as a result which sort of sucks. I've tried to make my peace with it for the most part and yes, as you said spend more time with the friends I know irl.

I will take your advice with the writing strategies and doing other things when the doubt comes. It just sucks to sometimes feel this way when I write.

Yeah, I get it. Not knowing is often worse, because your brain keeps turning the puzzle over and over in your mind, trying to come up with possible solutions, weighing those solutions, debating the flaws and weaknesses of each one and trying to figure out what the likeliest answer is. When it comes to personal interactions, you can end up re-examining everything you ever said to that person, what they said to you in return, what that meant, whether or not they interpreted something you said differently than you intended, whether or not you misread something, etc. etc. My brain does that, too. It's a weird kind of mental paralysis at times where your brain gets bogged down trying to resolve something that might not have a neat and tidy resolution.

I've heard antidepressants can help with that. I'm not currently on any, but it's something I've considered in the past. For now, I find that physical AND mental interruptions to break that downward spiral is the best course of action that doesn't involve therapy and/or drugs. You're breaking yourself of a negative mental habit, and that's never easy. Good luck.
