Do you sometimes find yourself punishing friends unconsciously in ways in which you have been abused. I don't mean that I am abusing friends, just distancing etc. I am finding myself being triggered and distancing in ways I never used to. Also "Lucy" is "out" a lot... and hating it :(

I am feeling like not posting and that I shouldn't post but I just don't know :(

It is hard to let people get close...for me close means pain, loss and a struggle. That is one of my best survival skills....

Fuzzy,

I test too. Getting close only means pain. I try, they get close and then hurt me, so it is hard for me too.

I like it when you post. You keep me company!

You need to keep yourself and Lucy safe first and foremost. After that you can think about others. There is always the possibility that you have outgrown certain relationships and idecided to move on. We all need to distance ourselves at times for our well being. I am sure you have done this in a kind way. I hope you start feeling better soon.

Yes you are right that many ppl do that. PPl do that to their Ts also... imo... seeing if friends or Ts "can handle" what you know... to see if they will stay if they had a glimpse of what you feel. I think it's part of the trust issue.

Sometimes though, ppl who have been hurt do strike out hurting others in the same way.

Withdrawal of feelings, preventing interactions with others, is a form of coping but also of testing, imo.

When we realize our actions, and some of the reasons behind them, we are on the way of correcting our actions and feelings, and on the way to healing!!!! :(

You are doing so well, fuzzy!
