You think you don't have any trauma, but sometimes trauma is something very small o almost invisible.

For example unsatisfaction, shame, lack of love. Of course, we can't compare these things with violence or child abuse, but on the other side, we should not underestimate them.

There's no easy way ti gain control back in your life, but many things help: therapy, improving your life with activities that give you a sense of achievement, find people to talk to.

Comment by Erica Tamizi on January 22, 2021 at 6:59pm: I know it takes courage to talk and walk out of your comfort zone. I'm no therapist but I also read that MD is a coping response to trauma. Since people lose control of their real life (because of any reason - depression, anxiety, life hardships, etc) and they make a perfect world in their head that they have full control over it. MD is a mental illness since it is too addictive and causes people to cut themselves from the real world - isolation.

If this is MD then I totally relate to it but I haven't talk to a therapist about it yet. I recommend you talk to a professional and don't self diagnose.

I read quite a few stories on this website and in fact a lot of them are similar to my story but some of them are totally different.

Stay strong and know that you are not alone.
