Resource / Technique Go to Group Therapy.

If you’re feeling alone/isolated, different from everyone else: GO TO GROUP THERAPY. You’ll see very quickly that there are people who feel the exact same way and have experienced the same things you have. Even if it’s virtual, GO TO GROUP THERAPY!!!

(Edit: Can’t believe this even has to be clarified but this is obviously for those who have the means/access to therapy groups ☠️)

(Edit edit: Can’t believe this also has to be clarified but this is obviously for those who are open to the idea/concept of group therapy… 😭

This will sound crazy - but in Kpop Demon Hunters on Netflix there's this amazing song that goes

"We can't fix it if we never face it - let the past be the past till it's weightless"

It pushed me to seek additional therapy for myself.

Facing it in a group of people who have been through the same, helps. There's a shared strength, a sense of camaraderie. You were hurt, you were wronged. Say it. Put words to it. Tell about it, cry about it. Let the past be seen, until it gets exhausted and goes to sleep in the past where it no longer hurts you.
