We live in a Society that has learned to blame in an attempt to get rid of frustrations. Since Covid, the environment became more aggressive, and one person pushes its pain to another, without knowing it. And we are hurt.
We live in a Society that has not allowed emotions to be shown as we need to be “politically correct”. It makes me sad because some people believe there is something wrong with them. If you keep your emotions for yourself, and you do what it is expected, you are a good boy or a good girl.
And time goes by, and you have never learned or been allowed to disagree, to show your pain, to ask for help, to be vulnerable.
And as time still passes, you need to “cope” somehow. Then is what the government and marketing puts in your face: crappy food that will give you instant gratification therefore erases your frustrations for a few minutes. And many other coping
And as time goes by, you are blamed for all your imperfections that make you a beautiful person, you are putting yourself down, and quitting your dreams.
Whether you are a teenager or an adult, you are struggling with your emotions, feeling that it is your fault, and something is wrong with you.
I can promise you, it is not your fault, you just need to learn to connect with your emotions, the real ones, and be yourself.
