this might sound mean but it really is a shame that mental healthcare in Ireland is so poor because I have never encountered a people more in need of extensive collective therapy than the Irish.

#there's such a huge inability to express feelings or emotions here #which contributes to a really pervasive tendency towards passive-aggression and frustrating indirectness #extreme non-confrontational attitudes and the inability to just honestly communicate with friends and family #encourages people to simply never address simmering problems until it either explodes or they just ghost their friends #which all also contributes to the culture of binge-drinking #because most Irish people can only have deep conversations when absolutely hammered #just...the widespread emotional stuntedness is not cute
