Objectively, I have difficulties opening up to people about problems I have in my life. I say "objectively" because while I know it's good to talk through problems with people and that you get lots of valuable insight from other people's point of views along with their own unique experiences, I've never "felt" that it was a problem so to speak. Which bothers me in a way because I feel like I "should" feel bad or worried about it but I don't.
Whenever I have worries or a problem or a difficult decision I need to work through I never want to talk about it to other people. It's not that I don't think people will listen or be empathetic but more like it's overwhelming in a weird way. It's like my own personal private thought process, when working through my own problems, is a quiet stream and it takes time but it's steady and peaceful and I know myself and I know what I want and what I don't want so I trust the conclusion that it ends up at. And then other people's thoughts and advice is like someone throwing rocks into that stream. Like even if they mean well, it's just more things to take into account, more debris to filter through, and more distractions.
