relating to my earlier reblog, i mean some ppl weaponizing therapy language sounds like they are just unable to have a normal back-and-forth conversation. or like, a healthy friendship. It’s like
a friend talking about their worries: just STOP TRAUMA-DUMPING on me
a friend expressing an emotion: omg you CAN’t EXPECT me to do this EMOTINAL LABOUR
their friend/partner disagreeing with them: that’s GASLIGHTINg and u r MANIPULATIVE
someone hoping their friend would sometimes answer their texts: you are literally SO CONTROLLING. no one oWes you thEiR tiMe or eneRGy
a friend responding with a similar relatable thing that happened to them too: whY aRe yOu maKinG thiS cOnveRsaTIon AbOUt YOUrSelF?!?!?!
dissapointed but not suprised that annoying people have utilized therapy language to stay emotionally immature and avoid responsibility
