yes! the discourse about nate’s sexuality can be soo triggering for me bc the idea of people speculating about my sexuality is terrifying. it’s a good exposure tho!

and ofc the plot line of jules and rue going from friends to lovers is triggering cause i always worry if my platonic love for friends is really just romantic/sexual and i don’t know it/am suppressing it. but i still use it as exposure and try to resist the need to know. you got this!

@cc97 it was hard, but i’d get thoughts and i will sometimes engage in reassurance-seeking out of fear/discomfort. but i’ve really been trying to just see the thoughts as is, and maybe take a break from watching. or sometimes i’ll say to myself “it doesn’t matter. i only care about the plot line”

@Anonymous after all, they are just characters in a show. i feel like i’m making it sound so simple, but it is truly so hard for me to do. i understand! but it’s the effort that counts.

@Anonymous Yes I noticed I googled, posted on here and Reddit . So just need to get better at not doing that when triggered by the show! That’s good advice thank u
