Working Through a Confusing Relationship that made me feel small
I'm coming out of a relationship that really crushed me and left me feeling really small, alone, awful, like I was the problem even though my gut was doing knots the whole time.
I am autistic and prone to blaming myself. And that's how it got left off, I ended up getting blamed for everything. I've spent the past week or two trying to process everything and drawing helps me process.
There was a lot of stuff I guess I'm processing. He'd say one thing that would contradict another thing... He made some comments that really destroyed my self confidence. He wouldn't talk to me if he had a problem with me but would instead run to his sibling...
It was a really weird, impossible dynamic to be in. It was impossible to figure out any of his true thoughts or wants on something. And it was completely unsafe to share any of your own because he'd badmouth me to others or drop shaming/guilting comments, or I'd get bad intentions assigned to me if I tried to set boundaries.
Sorry if you'r...
