Was it difficult to to be so vulnerable right away, or did it feel right? I admire people who can do this.

If you don’t mind me asking, why was it a huge mistake? Please only answer if you’re comfortable doing so.

That makes sense. The result is what affects you today so working through that seems like a good idea. I tend to shut down and get worse too. I dissociate and often get really suicidal and do impulsive things when specifics are mentioned. Despite this, I still have this urge to tell someone the details of my trauma and just get it out there. When you say you get worse, what do you mean by that?
