I grew up being told I was too sensitive and I spent the next twenty-five years building an entire personality around not reacting. Now I'm the person everyone calls steady and nobody calls close, and I can trace the distance in every relationship I have back to a single word a teacher used when I was nine. - Silicon Canals

Emotional steadiness often masks deeper issues rooted in childhood experiences and societal feedback.

The Shame of People-Pleasing

Humans have a strong tendency to overcorrect. Perfectionists, in particular, overcorrect by forcing themselves to become different versions of themselves, or fundamentally different people. Disdaining weakness in general, they often enter treatment to attempt to eliminate all of it. In my experience, one of the more glaring and repugnant weaknesses is people-pleasing, the tendency to go above and beyond to make others feel comfortable and/or happy.
