ah, i remember now i remember if i felt sad, i would feel my parent’s attention stuck on it like superglue. it felt like it wouldn’t come off till it seemed like i was happy again and it felt stressful

what they said: “what’s going on? what can we do to make it better?” what i felt: “how can i make this stop as soon as possible?”

highly sensitive children will dissociate from their emotions if the attention feels too overwhelming https://t.co/0PxMTvkHOX

wasn’t just smiling, was everything. any expression. my parents’/anyone else’s attention on it would be overwhelming. better to be wooden than overwhelmed around people i didn’t feel safe with https://t.co/4BewZiVeHD
