A little of many, and a lot of a few.
Probably pretty similar to you.

  • Yeah you are right, but at some point we all have to reckon with how we feel. Your emotions live with you and you can’t keep that distance forever. It should give one pause to think if they are incapable of valuing their own emotional state at the same level as they do someone else’s.

    I take issue with how trauma is framed in modern pop-psychology. The guidance we receive from our negative emotions is incredibly useful and framing it as being similar to recovering from a wound is misleading. I’m not trying to belittle people who have had traumatic experiences when I say that, how you feel about things that have happened to you really matters. They way you respond to these events almost defines you as a person, and having poor coping mechanisms will hurt you further. But bad experiences are inevitable, and treating them with taboo limits our ability to see out of ourselves and understand our situations with clarity.
