Is There A Trauma Response Or Self-preservation Instinct That Will Reset Your Mind To A Previous Time If The Present Is Unbearable?
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

The past two years of my life have been like an out of body experience. I always knew that if I could return to the year before my mental decline, I could get my life back. Recently I had the worst meltdown I’ve ever had and afterwards I woke up “in 2021.” After enough pain, I got my wish. Is this a common thing?

@A MyDepressionTeam Member Exactly. I feel like I’ve been given a second chance at life. I thought God hated me after my other friend got mad at me, but I hope being given a remarkable chance like this means He loves me after all. I’ll never ask for anything again, and I won’t be discouraged from faith again.

Yeah, I guess my friends just like getting mad at me lol. I want to jump up with joy too. If this is real, my journey has come full circle. I’ll jump up and down with you guys, lol.
Hugs to you all! Thank you for always being there for me when no one else is!

Jillian if you are feeling and doing better then why be concerned about it? Your meds might have gotten your brain and your body in the place they need to be or God could have touched you.

I don’t understand about your “friend” , you say that you are feeling better than you have in a long time but your so called friend is getting mad at you. If they really love and care about you, then they should be jumping up and down with you doing better. Just my thoughts and and the way I would be a “friend “
Hugs and keep feeling better

If that’s what it is, it’s helping, I feel better now than I have in a long time, but my friend is getting mad at me for going through this. Idk, maybe I’ll go to the emergency room in case I should be concerned.
