Thank you,  Kizzie!!

I don't have any words of wisdom but how you are feeling is very relatable and know you're not the only one.

One thing that helped me a lot was a CBT course for social anxiety. It helped me to realize not everyone is interested in me for less than healthy reasons (controlling, crowding, needing,  dominating etc).  I have been able to turn down the hypervigilance and be more self-referenced as a result but there is still anger/fear about ever being back in a relationship where I am unable to stay self-referenced so will keep chugging along. Like most things in recovery it just takes time.  Sigh, patience Kizzie patience 

Kizzie, could you share a little more about your CBT course? How did you find it? Is it in person or online? Very eager to hear your thoughts... happy it has been positive for you! Thanks for sharing.
