Advice
How can I give advice if I'm not going to have kids? Since when does anyone give advice if they are not going to succeed in life? (!!HOT TAKE!!)
Remembrance
Have you ever found remembering something difficult? But the moment you see it all makes sense and comes together? (!!CONTRADICTS THE NEXT IDEA!!)
Blind
Sometimes going in blind can be better than actually seeing things. When you judge a book by its cover it becomes boring. Like listening to a song. When you look at it it loses its beauty. (!!BEAUTY IN THE MADNESS!!)

Why I keep thinking people are mad at me?
I don’t know why but I keep thinking that everything I do, people will be mad at me for it. I’ll offend them. I compare situations from one person’s persp...
There’s an anonymous voice app where you can rant or blab briefly about issues and get feedback from others. It was calm or something tame and no trolls were allowed.
I did it during covid but it’s often usually kids now sadly. There’s also beautiful anonymous should you dare to talk live on the air for a while. Lot of venting and ranting sites out there also.
Maybe the more you write to let it out will help. It definitely can. A voice however also greatly helps too. Of course, that depends if you’re a screen person or a communicator. Much luck and never keep it in.
ReplyIt’s why I have issues with most people in the psychology field and why I got into it. There’s not enough blunt, real people there that aren’t full of the usual formulaic jargon.
Of course, you can still be supportive and listen while trying to not offend. Being honest isn’t a bad thing bug it depends on the type of personality you’re talking to.
Sadly, people are often supposedly offended by stuff they aren’t prepared to hear. It makes sense but not everything is mommy and apple pie. Much and most of it is dark, confusing, complex and so on.
Most of us thought talk like human beings and not from a manual. Then again, many in the field think walking on egg shells and dancing around the obvious helps many of us.
Being blunt and honest is important I find, but you have to judge your audience first. At least you’re honest. Best way to be when if you ruffle feathers. The key is knowing when to tell a blunt truth but curb it in case it’s too much.
Few are honest these days whether the ones in charge or the patient. Usually, It’s the former from experience. Always a work in progress. Be honest and be yourself and if some cannot handle it, that’s their problem. Curbing helps though. I’m the master of it.
