I asked once if the forum boards could interfere in some situation irl (it was nothing like this, it was extreme and dangerous) and not only I was told it’s not possible I was yelled at and chastised so I have learned not to suggest such things ha

Yeah, I’ve been chastised on this thread.
Well, good to know, I won’t think about it.

I don’t see the benefit in “venting” about your cognitive distortions and your transference issues, but what do I know?
Distraction is a tool in dbt for emotional regulation, but I don’t think posting on message boards about your obsession is listed as one
Thanks for this!
