“I have no idea how to stop doing this. My whole life, if I try to speak directly on a problem, I get put in my place so harshly that people make it clear I never should have said anything in the first place, so I’ve learned to just clam up and fume silently.
“It’s not just parents or family or friends or partners or coworkers, it’s everyone, so I assume my real problem is me wanting things, the changes I want just must make no sense, so there’s no point in bringing them up anymore
