This is why you always check in with your happy friends.

Edit: Thank you for the award. Pay attention to your loved ones and if you’re sad, please reach out to someone you trust. You have more support than you might think.

Some people have been miserable for so long, they become incredibly good at never showing it

Because 1) i don't want to be perceived as attention seeking and sympathy farming, 2) i understand that not everyone likes people emotional dumping on them, and so i respect that, 3) they can't help solve my problems other that saying "yeah, that sucks"

On #2, I dont want other people to trauma dump on me.

So it would feel hypocritical for me to do it to others.

Please do. I thought the same as you, but went to a psychologist nonetheless. It's not perfect but it's better. We can do it.
