I kinda have all 5 of these symptoms, and loneliness to boot. Even while being in a relationship and living with my love, even though I get spikes of happiness and joy spending time with them, I still weirdly feel really lonely. My mind drifts away and I end up dissociating or just retreating into my mind to think about the things affecting me, or to think about things that can't be.
I even end up not interacting with my friends as much. Sure if they send a message to me, I usually respond but I rarely interact beyond that, and the amount of times I've been invited to something and I don't want to go (until I am there, though sometimes even when I am there, even though I know social interaction is good for me) but I force myself anyway, is plenty.
I do have a therapist (well she's a couple's therapist since things between me and my partner is. strained) but the problem that we got the therapist for kinda eclipses my own struggles and it feels like I am out of time (which is partly my fault because I thought I was ready when I was not)
I don't know what to do

This may not be the biggest thing ever, but I still kinda wanna share it.
So like 4 years ago, I had this friend. We were best friends, but we also hated each other. She completely changed my personality, and when I think back, I can't do anything else than just see an asshole that was me for like a year. Anyways. She told her mom things I apparently did. So her mom called my mom and I to their house to have a talk. Then proceeds to scream at a 9 year old child for 2 hours straight. I can legit remember their house, a little bowl with nuts, their garden and all those things.
That experience is probably why I never feel safe around adults, especially other people's parents. I also got some quite serious trust issues from it.
It doesn't matter how big or small the thing you got trauma from is. It should always be treated in some way or another

Even though sometimes I randomly get pain in some spots and daydream more than the average fellow, I'm not sure if I actually kinda suffered a form of trauma.
I also have a deep ingrained fear of the dark, and extreme trouble with sleeping (one noise from the vents and it's all I need to think a demon wants to kill me. The closest thing I can think of though was a kid playing a horror game in second grade, and I just so happened to watch while trying to play a game of my own. He got jumped by one of the creatures in the game, and I saw the jumpscare too. Now I have these problems. so could it possibly be trauma?
Edit: I'm doing better now, i somehow got interested in the series that scared me. .still have trouble sleeping though.

Is it normal to flinch and protect yourself whenever theres any kind of movement near you? My brother and I used to fight when we were younger, hes older than me so he usually ended up hurting me, hed hit me, kick me, manipulate me, etc, I never thought it mightve actually affected me, or that it was wrong, since we were pretty young, but I was with some friends the other day and one of them tried to fix my hair cuz it was in my face, and I instinctively protected myself as if she was gonna hit me, she thought it was weird, and that lead to me noticing that maybe its not normal to flinch at ever small movement, I dont know if its any kind of trauma or what it is, maybe it is normal and Im being over dramatic? Im just confused

Mr
Im a hobbyist, and that hobby is psychology. I have to talk about this one with more clarity one day. Theres a business owner that used to be dumb whos mild trauma screwed him up so much he created a reality where he only hired dumb people to work for him. Firing and making people quit who where smart and intelligent. I mean I wouldnt say its sad, but funny and bizarre how that came together. The details of how far he took it are beyond silly. Does this story ring a bell to anyone? Hit the Like Button or leave a comment on what kind of business this guy owns.

I almost experienced my first Riot in 2020 (I almost committed 2nd degree that night)
I was afraid to go Downtown because that was the Hub
I'm easily startled by Large Groups of people
Still feel like I was somehow responsible (It was a BLM one and I'm not Black)
Basically 95% of the Anime I watch is for Disconnecting from the real world (Which came back to haunt me Rewatching Shimoneta since that was my disconnect at the time)
(Edit) I toned down on the Disconnect by a lot (Still have frequent Daydreaming)

I think this video answered some of my questions. There is something I have wondered about. When I was fifteen, I got into a car with a stranger. While he took me home, just as I asked, he kept touching me in a manner I didn't like, and he went so far as to make me kiss him. I have reason to think that I was traumatized by that. For many years, I would have panic attacks if I was approached by a man on the street, because I would think he would assault me. I am wondering if that experience at fifteen was the reason.

Does being told you arent dealing with extreme mental health issues count? Tw:
I was told I wasnt suicidal/depressed/anxious even though I know I was. I blamed myself and told myself (like others told me) that I was faking it for attention; I wasnt. I began the bad habit as a self-punishment thing to help cope with the stress and empathy deals with. I am an especially sensitive empath, and was told I am too sensitive, another excuse why the 9-year-old doesnt have problems. Alright, let me shut up lmao

I got robbed at gunpoint when I was 6, I ran away leaving my mom behind and I hid behind a door and in between this cabinet space and saw the guy threw the sliver of the door creak. I heard a loud bang and thought my mom was dead but I stayed inside in case they hadn't left. My mom came back, and the police did nothing. I don't think I ever truly processed that moment in my life. I have GAD and had the symptoms of anxiety my whole life nonetheless.

I used to get deja vu flashbacks where I recall a memory of a conversation that didn't happen. Typically whoever was scorning me in this deja vu was incredibly mean, judgemental, verbally abusive, etc. Even though in reality they never said it, nor would ever say it. That's when it's important to stay grounded in reality so you don't get upset or retract from people who never did anything to you.

I recently discovered I have trauma. I knew I went through a lot as a kid and shrugged it off because its in the past. But talking out loud to a professional about my past really opened my eyes and explains why I am the way I am with all my symptoms: anxiety, panic attacks, disassociation, feeling bad about things no matter how small, etc.
It feels good to know Im not alone

Its the people who left me to suffer thru the worst who tell me, get over the past, stop living in the past, mainly family members, and others etc. I guess they say this because they do not want to be remind how they left me and will always leave me to suffer. Others who say prayers expect God to do the work, as if, My real friends are action.

Its one thing to get help, its another stressing over who can help without it costing an arm and a leg. They say money cant buy everything, but nowadays, its all people want in order to help those who are struggling, even those whore hardly getting by on bills and rent during the pandemic. Its really hard.

Ever since I started dating my current boyfriend. I am always easily startled. And we will be doing something and I jump out of my seat whenever I hear footsteps because I have a gut feeling that I'm going to get in trouble since I've had so many issues with my mom just walking in on me

At the end of the video, I noticed that there are steps to cope with trauma. Do you have any video about those steps? If anybody can point it that will be very helpful. But if you don't have it, perhaps this is a request.
And great video as always. Love your contents

I was hella abused and nobody seems to care because I'm a guy. I got beat up a lot for no reason and everyone calls it horseplay, that's why I flinch everytime someone raises their hand at me and I don't like hugging people anymore. I don't think I will be able to recover
