Hey @Bow, really hearing how much you're feeling dissuaded from chatting to your supports about this feeling. And like... maybe they won't quite understand, or maybe not in the way that someone with lived experience can understand. But that doesn't mean they won't care. Especially if you highlight just how invalidated you're feeling. Like tryna picture their perspective, maybe they have no idea how crappy this has left you feeling. And if you don't speak up about it, they might assume you found their words reassuring, rather than upsetting, ya know?
You don't necessarily have to broach the topic right away, especially if it's got you feeling pretty shaken. Like @Ru-bee pointed out, you do have the words to describe what you're going through. Maybe this is another situation where screenshotting your forums posts could be a useful way to get the point across?
Anyway, here for ya hun, and depositing some hugs here for ya too 😊
