You didn’t react that strongly because of the situation. You reacted because you were already running on empty. When your system is stretched thin, even the smallest inconvenience feels like too much. Not because you’re dramatic… but because you have nothing left to buffer it. Most people judge the reaction. Very few understand the build-up behind it. Instead of asking “Why did I react like that?” try asking, “Where have I been overextending myself?” #therapy #emptiness #nervoussystem #psychologyinsights #counselling
