Yes. There are people out there who can just put you through the wringer. You think that's okay the first time, because you don't have a lengthy history with that person, but by the 20th time that person has actually DAMAGED you...and you have a harder and harder time bouncing back.

Yes, that's me too. Give yourself a day and then a good night's sleep. And after that come back to it. You'll atleast come across better and perhaps more relaxed about it too

Nobody really needs to have me in their life for any good reason. I still deal with being programmed to talk and confer with others. I simply tell myself not to. Give them a break -. People are on their way to the people who matter, not to the person my family destroyed years ago, and that's good.

Yup. Happened to me many times.
I have always had a hard time processing emotions. Sometimes even identifying what they are, Its maddening!

I can relate! Lately I’ve been dealing with a lot of anxiety due to relationship situations. You are not alone @Lanie78❤️

Of course, I don't deal with blunt people well if I'm depressed and struggle with self-confidence.

Completely understand 😞
