I just wanted to post this *positive recovery focused*
 

My flatmates are being nice to me.
Not that they aren't usually, but I'm noticing it more now, maybe?
Like, they care.
And that both feels good... and uncomfortable. It breaks the mold of Katrina's "I'm an invisible unwantable freak."

I just wanted to post this, as it's kind of momentous, to me, at least.

I'm not invisible. And that is really... amazing to know and feel that.

That's really nice to read. I know what you mean about noticing it more. I go through phases of noticing my parents being nice or not to me and I think it all depends on me rather than them changing their behaviour and I know how nice it feels to notice it and feel cared for.
I guess all new feelings are uncomfortable for a while whilst you get used to them.

As someone who finds it almost impossible at times to accept anything positive about themselves i can relate to how important this is for you.

*hugs* Good to hear

I have read this thread a dozen times. A thousand times happy for you. It CAN be scary I know. Take it in stride.

Take care of you,
