Hello. I believe in being optimistic but without toxic positivity (Toxic positivity involves dismissing negative emotions and responding to distress with false reassurances rather than empathy. It comes from feeling uncomfortable with negative emotions. It is often well-intentioned but can cause alienation and a feeling of disconnection. Right as rain.uwmedicine.org)
I hope that I can contribute my life experience ( as a 39 year old and mother of 2 boys) and empathy /support to this community.
I have a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and love deep diving into biographies and true crime cases—which may be why I have anxiety at times.
