Low effort shop has flooded the main sub but AI could not make a jerk post if its life depended on it. In many ways it’s toasted.

I was wondering if anyone here has had success applying CBT to anxiety when their lives are seriously intertwined with a family that’s prone to inducing these negative and toxic emotions? Or did you need some real physical separation?

My family is very competitive even though they are very loving. A lot of my unhappiness comes from baggage with them over a long period of time. Sometimes they are toxic, sometimes not but i find myself almost always in flight or fight mode and falling into all sorts of cognitive distortions every day.

It’s become very hard to find peace and it’s coupled with having some dips in my career in low on self esteem.

I find when i feel better some interactions with family often pull it all back. Any advice and experiences are appreciated

Sex sells. The more sexiness they put in the ad the better it is. Anyone else notice this?
