I'll make the background image of this. Well, something that compares things that you can say validating things and toxicity positive things. But yeah. So thank you so much for listening. I hope you learn something about toxic quick positivity today and how it affects your mental health and see you next time. Bye

I'm going to post a conversation that was just about this that Dawan initiated a while back, so hopefully there can be some cross conversation happening here. Really interesting conversation. Thank you

I'll say that you're not here in the battlefield, especially when it comes to violence and poverty, and I'm living in the midst of it, and I'm staying positive, and that's all I have to hold on to. Sometimes I'm not surviving anymore. I'm thriving with a positive mindset, so I didn't misinterpret what your swell was about, but I had to pinpoint that one thing. That good vibes only thing

For example, there could be this kid who's seen so much about mental wellness and things like goodbyes only et cetera, et cetera online, and they could immediately jump to the conclusion that they're depressed, even though they're just sad. And depression and sadness are very different things. So yeah, that was my angle. But I agree with whatever you said about people needing good vibes and positivity because negativity drains you so much

Oh, I forgot to thank you for highlighting the other areas of toxic positivity that I did not. First of all, I'm new to toxic positivity, the label and what it means. And thank you for highlighting that this is it gives me goose pimples to see new things. I love to learn new things. And thank you for highlighting this new label for me. And now I can understand what people are talking about. Now I you really highlighted something that nobody is highlighting right now
