It's rather difficult to help you at times as you share something but when people reply, you change it completely. Like you say Facebook is triggering but when people reply you are saying it's not. Or something is upsetting to you but then when people suggest something, you reply that's it is not upsetting. Etc etc it's almost impossible to maintain coherent discussion under these circumstances

Or as soon as you get replies you say you are in the wrong forum, almost every thread of yours ends with you saying you are in the wrong forum. Yet people are already invested time making suggestions that you never find useful. It is kind of going in circles. Rather tough to advice anything with lack of clarity and consistency.

Hopefully you can find some peace with all this.

I would appreciate not being judged. The critical responses I get show me either I'm in the wrong forum or I've shared too much. I would be happy to discuss this in private message with any of my contacts.

If you go with the idea that a person is many things and not defined by one action or role...whether it be parent, friend, artist whatever the multiple possibility are. Then it goes to reason that it is annoying at best in a social network to only be appreciated by one thing when you may share many things. It is also a problem when others do not listen or read, jump to conclusions without getting the facts or limit the facts to a bias. I believe there is a type of therapy to address that. CBT anyone? Life is complex enough without uninformed criticism, and filtered facts. You know PC is theoretically a place to be supported & encouraged & not a place to be told go and be well... We can all get that kind of trash else where.
Thanks for this!

Exactly. I uploaded the same picture this morning, and the same person liked it, and nothing else, not my garden, not my painting, not my cooking, not my memes. That person also publicly asked me a question they could've asked me privately. I deleted the picture again, sent the person a text. I think to say more then that on this thread would be a mistake. It's not about Facebook, my daughter, feeling jealous, feeling resentful, starting threads in different forums. I have PTSD and this is a trigger. I'm learning how to manage my triggers on psych central. I know they can be hard on others and I'm trying to be mindful. The relationships and communications forum is probably not the best forum for me. I apologize for the disruption.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
