@Jynx
For me, I live knowing I have no boundaries ( my fault ) . It’s a state where the membrane between self and other is almost non-existent. A bit like 'folie au deux,' in a love relationship where you talk and feel same same as your partner .
It's triggered more because of my head injury when I was 15 ( clinically dead 7 times, coma 6 weeks)
I absorbed the stress and pain of others as if it were me, but it was/is my pain. My anxiety.
I had a hairdresser - he is a very popular hairdresser in Western Australia. He went above and beyond for my youngest son when he was sick. But I knew him and his wife. I FELT what was happening in their personal lives. So I quit seeing him because I felt like I wanted to say something. But I didn't, I left.
Suprisingly my psychotherapist sees him too and I started tell her that I felt this when I saw him. So she helped me walk away.
I would feel if I had a past boyfriend, i could feel the physical sensation of a drug being injected into his arm.
I felt ..... Happiness --- a compliment given to someone else.
But I used to be very open to dangerous situations. It felt like my insides......
So I was/am incredibly vulnerable.
Iv gotten in the past some silly situations .
" Hey, PeppyPatti can I use your toilet ? I'm just going to steal your pearl necklace as well. "
I got help from three people.
Via 3 therapists meditators neaurologist. - Jon Kabat Zinn a meditator, Terry Real wrote book called " I don't want to Talk About it" and a neaurologist called Dr James Doty. Medication.
I think I found Dr James Doty and Jon Kabat Zinn in 2006. I just kept on listening to the audibles -
now I can think I was locating my own center. Find a sense of me.
Listened to the audibles all day in the car. I think Terry Real helped out with family dynamics. Taught me to walk Way. So did Sane forums.
I haven't I think changed much but I learning to say " time out," " I need to self care."
I learned I needed support. Not to have self indulgent pal Wals about " all our collective childhood wounds," talks but " I want to visit someone or telephone someone, should I do this ?"
My husband, people who I trust.
I live as an unboundried person. I don't hate myself anymore
I guess James Doty taught me to be compassionate with myself and as @Appleblissom says, be gentle.
n.
Empathy is a feeling with someone—for me is dangerous and depleting.
Iv done silly things like lots of other people . . I Married a person who has a diagnosis of schizophrenia because I was devastated with how the State government's mental health treated him. ....... He is a wonderful person but not marriageable.
So my support people know about my un boundaries.

I have 7 different squishmallows now
I also got to tie my brothers birthday present to the stone pillar at his house with plaited rubbish bags.
I gave him my minion claw plushie. I didn't like the texture of his pants.

@MissGremlin
I left a multi tool in the letterbox to help him get it down
He's not my biological brother, but he's every bit a brother to me and now I can make jokes about him being my minion and that it has more hair than he does.

Re: Good Morning!
@avant-garde hehe that's funny. You are sure making him work for it 😂.
I remember you saying about him not being your biological brother but that doesn't really mean anything. He has stepped up to be there for you and that is all that matters ❤️

I'm being very patient waiting to hear from him while also hoping it hasn't been stolen, I know he works late sometimes and then will probably have dinner with his mum for his birthday.
