  • A cartoon that unexpectedly got me, was about a young Christmas tree, all eager to get chosen by a family. It keeps imagining how cool it will be, until it gets chosen and Christmas actually exceeds all the expectations.

    After Christmas, the terror begins, with the family taking the decorations off and putting the tree in the basement. No more water and lonely, it slowly dies off, while rats keep harassing it hard.

    It didn’t lose hope until the end, always thinking the family is about to come and take it back to the living room. They never came.

    It was on TV , on Christmas, shown between the “normal” kind of Christmas cartoons.








  • I think i feel the same way about interacting with people. Didn’t they point out any ways to work on yourself or at least recommended a next step? I would expect this as the main outcome of going to a psychologist.

    I ask, because i never went to a psychologist.

    I didn’t suffer from neglect, but until i was 15, i had lived in 4 different countries. We actually kept rotating those countries all 2 years.

    On one side this made me a very open minded person and it was an experience i enjoyed, but on the other hand, i think it made me miss the step of creating meaningful, deep relationships in life.

    Everything i knew was living in constant flux. Meet and say goodbye again.

    From my 30s on i noticed others relationships and that people interact in a way I’m not used to or know how to deal with.

    I also don’t know how to work on myself with this.
