Is everyone just as messed up as I am? Recently I've just lost my best friend because now I realised I was trauma dumping on her and that was my fault, but now that I'm in the shoes of the one who helps everyone I've gained a new perspective now on how cruel the mind can actually be. I've seen both sides now, the venting and the therapist, and can see where both sides come from, and I just can't help but wonder, what does that make me? Where do my values end up now? After gaining perspective of both sides, I'm just confused on who I am now and what do I should do with myself. It honestly feels like i'm just in an experiment where I have to learn about how the mind works 😭

Take a AP psychology class
Still in high school and I'm australian 😞
gaining perspective of both sides doesn't really change who you are. your values and character didn't change, you just broadened them by learning more about different sides. it's part of becoming a more well-rounded person, through learning and experiencing.
you mightve lost your friend, but it seems like youve learned something from it. youve come out of it with more empathy and understanding, and thats part of maturing
