what helped me get this was understanding the difference between a want and a need want: “I WANT FRENCH FRIES!!! 😭” need: to not be overwhelmed by the feeling — https://t.co/kooc0LZyb7

substitute “I WANT FRENCH FRIES” with “I want him back” or “I need be someone else” or whatever it is iirc learned about the example and concept from @jessicamalonso

not getting what i want and subsuming that energy into a plan is not the same as the felt sense of not getting what i want

today, i am missing someone, but it is a little different. it feels like actually missing them what i felt before didn’t feel like missing them. it felt like panic. it felt like trying to do anything but acknowledge they’re gone

and as @jessicamalonso says, in avoiding the feeling we often end up recruiting others into our avoidance https://t.co/HWxS3QQ8ty

because a no from them doesn’t feel like overwhelm. it doesn’t feel disconnecting me from myself im not trying to recruit them into my avoidance

what you think is a need: I NEED FRENCH FRIES what is the actual need: to not be overwhelmed by the need https://t.co/4u8qPiRMlL
