Honesty Over Toxic Positivity

“‘Just be positive’? That’s how you break your own heart.” “Because positivity isn’t healing —

avoidance is.” “Toxic positivity trains you to treat sadness like weakness… anger like a flaw…

and fear like something to ignore.” “So you smile when you’re not okay. You suppress instead

of processing.” “That emotion doesn’t disappear — it turns into resentment, numbness,

and self-betrayal.” “Healing isn’t about feeling good.” “It’s about being honest —

even when it’s uncomfortable.”
