Dear Diary,
I just came across this term, toxic positivity, few months ago while reading some book on wattpad. I was amazed at this and also guilty because I'd been using it a lot. Like really a lot. On myself and others, unintentionally. I thought I was making them feel better. I thought that was the way to be. And that's how everything is solved. But, nope. It is actually sugar coating your emotions and someone else's. That's the image I came across in that book. I was rudely awaken because I have said it all. All on the "instead of saying" side.
The second image is cute and apt for toxic positivity example though. If any of you have said these things or heard it. I think you gotta try the "say" side in coming days. I've begun to practice it. Hope to break the toxic positivity from my mind, completely. It'll take some time but I'm ready for it.
