These memes express a shared struggle we’ve all felt at one point in our lives. Many of them would likely resonate, one way or another. As sociologist Dr. Tracy Brower pointed out, hard times forge stronger bonds among people.
“Pain is a shared experience, and it is the combination of deeper processing and more memorable circumstances which tend to link us with others,” Dr. Brower wrote in an article for Forbes.

And we call those Hunter-gatherer, art making, story telling social groups "uncivilised"... SMH
It’s why professional fighters end up gaining respect for one another after a brutal war inside the ring. You both underwent an arduous experience, and you now share a memory that only the two of you can fully relate to.
“This deeper mental engagement tends to make hard times more memorable—and our memory is linked with the people with whom we went through difficulty,” Dr. Brower explained.
A journal from the Association for Psychological Science also mentioned how pain is a “social glue” among people who went through a rigorous experience together. Their research found that they not only feel closer to those with whom they’ve shared struggles, but are also willing to risk their own outcomes to benefit the entire group.

This remains the case until the dry world enemy is overshadowed by the impending approach of a worse enemy - running out of hot water 🥶😱
According to psychological scientist Brock Bastian, who is also the lead researcher, the study sheds light on the camaraderie soldiers feel after battle. However, he also noted that painstaking experiences can also take place in daily life.
“These kinds of painful experiences may be relatively common,” he said. “Sharing a spicy meal with friends may even have positive social consequences!”

After using the tape, I fold the end over itself. Makes it easy to find and grab.

So much bad has happened in my life that I literally can’t reconnect with people and give them a proper summary of the last few months without breaking down and looking crazy. People only know me based on whatever their first impression of me was, not based on who I am

Grew up being told to act “normal” and told that I’ll have a bad adulthood if I continue being abnormal. Turning 18 in one year now and I guess I’ll never be happy or normal

Nah, people outside aren't usually that bad (except for that racist bïtch in Cherry Cottage), but the internet seems to bring the scum to the surface and give them a place to be vile with impunity

Best advice ... Find your people. Your people do not care if you overshare because they too are oversharing.
