Why do most people care so much about what others think? Are they afraid of society norms?

That moment, I realized something profound—most of the people staring weren’t even judging; they were just... looking. And the ones who judged? Well, they went on with their day just as I went on with mine.

“Did I drape it wrong? Does it look too plain? Do I even look good?”

And so should we.

Because, trust me, the world moves on a lot faster than we think.

The problem with caring too much about what others think is that we hand over our control to people who might not even notice us the way we think they do.

Take care!

What do you think about Matt Gatz as an attorney general?

It was the first time I wore a saree in college. Excited yet nervous, I draped myself in my mother’s teal-blue saree, which she had lovingly ironed and handed over with that proud twinkle in her eye.

Ah, society and its norms—always looming, always judging, isn't it? Let me take you back to an incident that forever changed how I view this question.

As I walked into the college, every pair of eyes seemed glued to me. Some admiring, some smirking, and a few whispering. My palms were sweating, and my steps faltered as my mind spiraled into a series of anxious thoughts.

I’m wondering about attachment and transference with the therapist and the idea of escape and fantasy? How much do you think your strong feelings, constant thoughts, desires to be with your therapist are a way to escape from your present life? I wonder if the transference serves another purpose than to show us our wounds and/or past experiences, but is a present coping strategy for managing what we don’t want to face (even if unconsciously) in the present—-current relationships, life circumstances, etc. Can anyone relate to this concept of escape in relation to their therapy relationship? How does this play out for you?

Are we afraid of society's norms? Maybe. But more often than not, we fear the stories we write in our heads about those norms.

I was ready to bolt when my friend walked up to me, grinning ear to ear. “You look like a dream,” she said, loud enough for everyone to hear.

So the next time society glares your way, ask yourself: is it really worth giving your peace to their fleeting thoughts?
