That makes complete sense! I have been isolating myself too, lately because it is so much easier to be alone than worry about being triggered, or reminded that I am not as happy as other people. Although I don't like being lonely sometimes, I find I prefer it rather than keeping up a facade of being okay since not a lot of people understand anyway. (had similar experiences about trying to open up not going so well...)

Hugs to you both and yes definitely keep posting.
