mad

ive been told by one of my friends that i might've just read it the wrong way and that they didnt see it as being passive aggressive (the ''ai art'' example is a different thing that happened with a different person). i think that they might be right in retrospect but me having rejection sensitive dysphoria as well as experiences being bullied in the past definitely didn't help with my response to it

@Im not good with usernames No, I understand completely. I deal with the same thing, and then that being coupled with OCD and reassurance seeking compulsions is not a good mix lol. Your friends are probably right. It can also be hard to discern tone over text at times, especially when you're neurodivergent🥲 Don't beat yourself up over it!

@nae nae - for me i mostly struggle with emotional dysregulation + rejection sensitivity and it can be hard for me to get myself to stop thinking about it/stop being upset about it even if its a small thing to someone else. im now feeling a bit guilty because i wound up reporting their post for being rude without thinking that it might not have been intended that way and i dont know how to take it back

@Im not good with usernames I'm the same. It can be the tiniest things, and I'll be thinking about them for days on end, replaying interactions, stressing over it hours after it's happened, etc, etc... I'm not sure if this will help at all, but even if you reported their post, I don't think they'll receive anything like a ban or timeout for it. The worst that I could see happening is the comment being removed, but that's it. Try not to blame yourself for reporting them. You didn't know they might not have had rude intentions behind their comment, and you won't ever really know what they'd meant by it. Not personally, anyway.
