There are times when I say too much

when visiting a dentist, GP or specialist surgery, which I ain't done for years, but am about to, quite soon.

This is when I feel the most comfortable, and go on about myself - my troubles, worries, and needs.

I had a recent long weekend away from society, navigating the open sea on a small yacht, with a good schoolmate, but with parents added. This family speak like the Queen. It's a good reminder how different it is from the rest of life dealing with others. Not sure if the intentions are good or mocking. Curled up together onboard a small vessel has a good balance between comfort and a social and physical challenge.

A mum who never stops chatting and asking questions about my life, causing me to erupt into a neverending display of emotion... it's difficult to stop. No charge for a psychologist

i've had patients like you in our office...i wish i had the time to sit and chat with them bc they're always so interesting!

I find that I genuinely like people who are so open with themselves that they just continue talking as long as I'm asking questions. There's a sweet honesty about them that I just can't get enough of in my daily life.

I find that I do this often too. I think it's just me trying to over compensate for my usual quietness. If I feel good enough to talk to others and open up, I tend to go overboard or I'll say things I wish I would have kept to myself lol.

I think just being genuinely honest is the best way to go either way. The way I see it, is that it's better to be open and honest, than quiet and reserved!
