I’m fine” is one of the most common emotional masks people wear. Not because they’re lying to manipulate you. But because they were taught that having needs = being difficult. So they hide sadness. They swallow anger. They carry stress quietly. The problem is… feelings don’t disappear when you ignore them. They show up later as exhaustion, irritability, anxiety, or burnout. Emotions are meant to be felt, not managed like a PR crisis. Maybe Louie is right. Humans make emotions far more complicated than they need to be. #therapy #toxicrelationship #healing #pyschologyinsights #counselling
