When I'm confiding in someone about an issue I'm facing, sometimes certain people respond very passionately
I know it's not being done in a way to upset me. And they are not angry at me. Rather, being upset at my situation and wanting to give me the confidence to stand up for myself
But I still take it on. And it hurts
I think it's partially why I feel distant and uncomfortable with my therapist
Like, when I was opening up about the SA I experienced in my undergraduate she passionately told me to go speak up to the school
It was good advice, but in that moment I remember feeling yelled at. And hurt
I don't know. Maybe I'm just too sensitive
