Post Traumatic Stress Disorder; The storm after the storm.

The Hidden Psychology of Connection
In a world more digitally connected than ever, loneliness is paradoxically thriving. As we scroll through social media feeds and interact with AI companions, we find ourselves surrounded by virtual connections that, in reality, leave us feeling more isolated than before. Eric Solomon, Ph.D., explores this paradox and reveals how the very tools meant to keep us connected might be deepening our sense of isolation.

Over, Under, or Indifferent? The Psychology of Toilet Paper Preferences and What They Reveal About Us
At first glance, toilet paper orientation seems like a mundane household detail. Yet for many, it’s a tiny battleground…one that triggers quiet annoyance, passive-aggressive flips, and even strong declarations of preference. Whether you hang the roll over, under, or don’t give it much thought, the way you interact with this daily object might reflect more about your psychology than you’d expect.

Sometimes the price of loving so deeply comes with the quiet wondering if I should just stop caring about other people and turn dark, the path I see so many other kind souls go down after feeling the pain of this world. So, I wanted to write a list of 100 reasons that I love exactly who I am - for the days when my heart grieves and aches as my mind explores the myriad of reasons that I should be anyone other than myself - to avoid causing myself so much pain.

Setting Boundaries Isn’t Mean…It’s Survival. Top Story - April 2025.
I’ve always known how to set boundaries. It’s not something I had to learn from a book or therapy session; it’s something that came naturally to me as a form of self-preservation. From the time I was a quiet two-year-old trying to watch a movie in peace, I knew how to defend my space, even if I wasn’t speaking much yet. My uncle kept pestering me, annoying me with taunts, pushing for a reaction And he finally said, “You look like a pig in the face.” and little two-year-old me, fed up and done, replied: “Well, if I look like a pig in the face, then you look like garbage.”
