I know that I’m processing a lot at the moment and working through c-ptsd. I’m noticing behaviours and chamgung them.. where I used to find pleasure (even for a little bit) in buying new clothes.. or eating.. addictive behaviours.. I find emptiness. Which I think is progress but at the same time.. it’s blah.. drab.. empty.. lonely.. I don’t want to over eat and I don’t need to buy more items.. but I feel meh
