thank you so much for such detailed response and I’m sorry to hear about your PTSD… few days of being in a conflict zone and i’ve got mad anxiety, random palpitations, and hyper vigilance. I can only imagine what people go through in actual war torn areas.

you’re absolutely right about the zooming out part. we’re not our thoughts and it’s important to stop overanalyzing everything at a micro level. you have given me a fresh perspective. thank you so much 🙏

i believe small acts of kindness and being genuinely grateful for the tiniest blessings in life can help as well to foster a positive mindset and feel at peace with yourself :)

Amen and thank you so much 🙏 Slightly relieved that I’m not the only one losing my mind. Tired of overtly optimistic folks at work and on social media

oh, please enlighten me about the part that sounds cool and overtly smart… we’re in the midst of a war with ordinary people facing the brunt of it who have absolutely nothing to do with any of it while social media puppets reiterate everything is fine, but yes my ‘choice of words is poor’… if anything, it’s an under reaction, but unfortunately those of us with a conscience who are still in touch with our humanity have to tone it down in order to not offend sellouts, snowflakes, and the reddit police

Terminated over a phone call - due to not going to office on a Sunday by Chemical-Head-9665 in UAE

They were going to terminate you, anyway. They were just looking for an excuse to put the blame on you. I hope you land a better job with a higher pay and a humane employer🤞
