I find both to be isolating in their own way. So, consider them carefully.
No communication is the obvious isolation, and it gets worse when you consider the danger involved with having no vocal, written, or signed voice. But, to speak every thought could cause its own problems.
How often do you have unspeakable intrusive thoughts? How often do emotions shape your thoughts to contradict your true feelings? It could get you into serious trouble or sever all of your bonds. Sure, you could try explain yourself and work with friends to correct the matter... But what's to say their reaction to the initial upset won't make you say worse things?
The question is a matter of choosing your own prison. At least for me.
I'm dependent on others so a loss of ALL communication destroys everything for me. But I'm also emotionally unstable and generally struggle to maintain bonds already. If I vocalised every thought and feeling, I'd probably look insane. I'd probably hurt too many friends.
Is it just me, or is this a cruel choice?
THIS, ALL THE FUCKING WAY.
HOW MANY TIMES DO. I GOTTA TELL THIS TO PEOPLE FOR THEM TO FUCKING LISTEN????
AAAAAAAAAAA /NEG
Stop implying mental disorders are easy to treat and if someone online has a mental disorder they just need to "touch grass" or go to a therapist and boom everything's easily fixed
Stop implying it's their fault for not "trying hard enough to fix themselves"
Stop shaming people who don't want to recover
Stop shaming people who won't go to therapy because they can't access it or they have trauma with therapists
it feels like everyone has their own friend groups and im just a dog that trails behind
