last night i had a difficult conversation with someone and i was able to fully say how they made me feel: mad, sad, etc. and i told them what i wished for even though i knew it wasn’t what they wanted.
after you get past the fear, keeping things to yourself is so much harder than being honest.
and both people feel so much better regardless of what was said<3 proud of myself !

Throughout my life I learned to hide aspects of myself that I felt ashamed of or afraid that others wouldn’t understand and I’ve been trying so hard not to do that anymore. It’s definitely beneficial but hard.

You should Literally never regret getting a truth off your chest. The people around you deserve to know and you will feel less alone when you introduce them to something you’ve kept close. Like here’s something I’ve been ruminating on, here’s my impression, here’s my little friend… Honesty is good

rid yourself of the need for saving face with the use of therapy words. of course there’s nuance here, but not every conflict with a friend calls for boundary setting, flag raising, and accountability. accept the fact that humans are inherently flawed and that we’re all just doing our best.
