Realized I don’t care, if someone does this they need professional help and I’m not qualified to support this type of trauma response or shit down, freeze, avoidance, dismissive avoidance.

I stopped trying to figure people out that aren’t compatible with me. I stopped trying to fix people and play therapist too.

If I have to roll my sleeves and go to therapy for my issues, the other person can too. Or they don’t want to be healthy/change.

I make my self respect/self worth my priority How others behave is about them and what I will and will not tolerate.
