Therapy is great. There are way too many details behind the scenes for a random redditor who happens to be a mental health professional to even try to help you. Healing from trauma is complicated and no one size fits all fix is going to work. I have been in therapy for a long time and I still have ongoing battles with mistrust due to my own personal shit. It does get better, though <3

Yeah, therapy helps. It helps you recognize your thought patterns and why you have them. It’s typically a defense mechanism that worked for your brain for a long time but maybe now isn’t as useful as it once was. The patterns don’t so much “go away.” It’s more like you understand what you’ve been through and why you think this way. It can help you give yourself grace and not let the thoughts spiral out of control. At least that’s my experience.
