hey uh, ever run crying to an intermediary because you couldn't deal with it yourself when somebody said a no-no word that hurt your feelings or somebody stated an opinion that you don't like but couldn't refute?

have you ever felt helpless and vulnerable?

have you ever felt like not only did you have no one to turn to, but also that you were completely alone?

have you ever been able to be kind to someone but withheld it out of spite?

have you ever felt like empathy was a weakness?

have you ever talked yourself out of sharing your feelings, for fear you might be labeled a woke snowflake

or that you might be killed for having those feelings?
