It’s hard but sometimes we just want someone to listen. That’s it. Let us say what we need to without any inputs. That goes for both men and women. Just ears. So simple but effective

Yes. I want to say what to vent and have someone vent at me in return (mutually agreed upon of course) I don’t want someone to respond to my vent with advice.

I need to talk through things to process them sometimes, and no one seems to get that.

Just to get it out of your mind. A therapist is nice, but there are some things they can’t do

Yeah, only so much my therapist can do. She is great for venting, but I do wish I could do that with friends

I never want one. Either I talk with friends or I shut my body down

Alas my friends all drifted away for various reasons, so all I got rn is a therapist. I’ve been with her for like 6 yrs so we got good rapport

That’s actually really good to hear:) Just don’t shut yourself out or disassociate yourself. It’s a really bad coping mechanism
