I very much relate to this. Been in an intensive group DBT program and idk if it’s helping, but it’s way more than a one on one therapist has ever done for me. It’s not solving all my problems, but it does help.

I’m not neurodivergent tho, just born too sensitive I guess. It sucks sometimes because it seems like most people don’t feel pain as intensely as some of us do. I probably have BPD traits.

I almost lost my job several months ago when a period of extreme ongoing workplace stress exacerbated my natural predisposition for this. Been many months now and I’m still employed. :)
