I didn't expect to be flayed in the public square today, but whatever is comfortable for you is good.

My therapist has pointed out the significance of my go-to "can't complain" by replying "sure you can!"

I'm the opposite lol. I have too many wildly chaotic emotions. They keep trying different drugs for me and now they are trying a low dose of Seroquel. Not overly pleased to be trying such a harsh drug, but I keep doing my best to try things after my job threatened to fire me and my coworkers getting frustrated with me. Idk man.

This was even though I was punished (not in a harsh way) for having extreme emotions as a kid. I guess some of us just end up with a extreme emotions even though guardians work to remove that idk.
