    Yeah, it’s just too bad it usually comes with a heaping dose of self-loathing, self-doubt, anxiety, constantly watching out for the next outburst even though you’re no longer around people like that yet the threat still always remains…

      If you’re lucky you transfer the first 3 into ongoing self improvement, professionalism, and control.

      If you’re not, well, buckle up, buttercup!

      Seriously, sometimes I catch myself thinking up coming up with lies, almost like gauging what reaction something would get… when I could just say the truth, or even if I am saying the truth, but I feel like I won’t be believed.
