i guess i kinda went through a phase like this and i have a lot of sympathy for it - they’re not done dealing with it and they want validation and support, and maybe also filtering out people who can’t handle it idk. people really do be out there in a lot of pain
of course there is like a calibration component of like, is this the appropriate time, are we close enough yet that this makes sense, what am i really trying to accomplish by saying this, etc etc etc

i feel like i phrased the original tweet badly or wasnt clear that something close that specific wording (vs the spirit of it) is what sets off alarms for me
traumaposting imo is good, but there's a *format* that makes me suspicious that any harm actually happened
