Trying this out
I’m not entirely sure how much I’m supposed to share here, or how much I want to share in general, really. But I figured it’d be worth it to find more people like me. Especially since I am so freaking lost at the moment!!…
To start, I’m 15. Recently, I was diagnosed with CPTSD + BPD traits and I feel like the symptoms are just getting worse in spite of me going to somatic therapy and my dbt group. The worst part is half the time I can’t even identify my triggers, and I don’t really know what all made me this way if that makes ANY sense. I find keeping close relationships very difficult because I’m never open enough and when I am it is too much for my peers or unintentionally “edgy”
I just wanted to know how others deal with/have dealt with this, and if anyone else has struggled with the therapies I’ve mentioned, did it ever get easier?
I am very tired of feeling this way and it’s quite literally only the beginning. I want friends who I don’t feel alienated with, people who can actually understand me without sugar coating anything or trying to “fix me”. But it’s starting to feel impossible.

If you were recently diagnosed it takes time to have therapy work any therapy. perhaps journaling or such you can see more of things when a person wants an answer sometimes, we overthink and miss the small things that are a trigger as we are looking for a big thing.
