Summary

Someone saying your worst fear is true doesn’t mean it is; it means they knew your worst fear and used it against you. And that will always say more about them than it does about you. Look to the people who really know you for affirmation, and try to cut the cords to external validation, as destabilizing as it might be. And if you haven’t already, f***ing watch The Last Of Us (Sierra insists). Join us on Patreon for an extra weekly episode, exclusive livestreams, and more!
