The Impact of Toxic Positivity on Mental Health

Toxic positivity is a term used to describe the excessive and unhealthy focus on positive thinking and emotions, which can result in the invalidation of negative emotions and experiences. If you feel like you are suffering from toxic positivity

, it may mean that you are struggling to acknowledge or express negative emotions and that you feel pressure to always appear positive and upbeat.

Some signs that you may be experiencing toxic positivity include:

Feeling guilty or ashamed about experiencing negative emotions, such as sadness, anger, or anxiety.

Ignoring or dismissing negative emotions in yourself or others, and trying to focus only on the positive.

Feeling pressure to always be happy, upbeat, and positive, even when you don't actually feel that way.

Feeling like you can't express your true feelings to others, because they might judge you or think less of you.

If you feel like you are experiencing toxic positivity, it's important to remember that it's okay to feel and express a range of emotions, both positive and negative. It's healthy to acknowledge and work through negative emotions, rather than suppressing them or pretending they don't exist. Seeking support from a mental health professional can also be helpful in managing toxic positivity and developing healthy coping strategies.

TalktoAngel is an online counseling and therapy platform that can help individuals struggling with toxic positivity. Our licensed therapists and counselors are trained to help clients recognize and address their emotions in a healthy way, and to develop coping strategies that work for them.

Google Translate Says ‘Shadow Work’ is Latin for ‘Mommy Issues’ 💀✨

By Frater Harambe

Spoiler: My inner child just wants chicken tenders and a nap. 🍗💤

What Even Is Shadow Work? 🤔

You’ve probably heard people talk about “shadow work” like it’s some deep, mystical practice. It’s supposed to be about healing past wounds, integrating your subconscious, and leveling up spiritually.

Sounds powerful, right?

Well, I got curious and ran it through Google Translate. The result? Dolores Matris—which, in Latin, literally means “Mommy Issues.” 😭

Honestly? Google Translate might have just saved me hundreds in therapy.

Modern Spirituality Is Just Therapy With Extra Steps 🧘♂️➡️🩺

Let’s be real: a lot of modern spirituality is just repackaged self-help. So I tested a few more popular terms through Google Translate, and here’s what the algorithm (and my exhausted soul) had to say:

1️⃣ “Shadow Work” → “Mommy Issues” 👩👧

Reality Check: My spirit guide is just my 8-year-old self crying over a Lunchable.

Relatable Moment: Every time I journal about my “inner wounds,” I just end up craving a hug and a Capri Sun.

2️⃣ “Self-Care” → “Avoiding Adulting” 🛁📉

Reality Check: A bubble bath won’t fix my credit score.

Relatable Moment: I once told myself I was “honoring my energy” by skipping laundry for three weeks. Spoiler: it didn’t feel very sacred by week four.

3️⃣ “Manifesting” → “Delusional Optimism” 💸✨

Reality Check: My vision board is basically just a Pinterest mood board titled “Things I Can’t Afford.”

Relatable Moment: I spent two weeks “manifesting abundance” instead of actually applying for jobs. Guess how that went?

Why Google Translate Might Be Onto Something 🤖🔮

Therapists say: “Process your emotions.”

Google Translate says: “Your trauma is a Groupon for existential dread.”

Me: “Finally, someone speaks my language.”

At the end of the day, shadow work is just realizing you have emotional baggage and deciding whether to unpack it—or keep dragging it around like an overstuffed suitcase at baggage claim. 🧳😵

FAQ: Shadow Work Edition 🤯

❓ What if I don’t have mommy issues?

💡 Liar. Google Translate says your “boundaries” are Latin for “Dad never hugged me.”

❓ Can I still do shadow work?

💡 Sure! Just replace journaling with screaming into a pillow. Bonus points if you tag it #SelfCare.

❓ What’s the Latin for “I need a nap”?

💡 Requiescat in pizza. (Rest in pizza.) 🍕

Final Thoughts: Join the Chaos 😈

🔁 Share this if your inner child is just a tiny gremlin who wants a juice box. 🧃

📌 Tag a friend whose “self-care” is just watching Netflix until 3AM.

📲 Follow me for next week’s lesson: “Astrology Signs as Trashy Reality TV Stars.”

Oh, and maybe text your mom “I love you.” Or don’t. Either way, Google Translate is judging you. 👀✨

Happy Halloween Half-Way!!!

Doc Heath here; your friendly Neighborhood NeuroMechanic!

Spooky season is a great time for the young AND the young at heart to PRACTICE “FEAR”. That’s right! Practicing experiencing difficult emotions when we know we’re in a safe environment can help us program our minds to understand emotions - even the difficult ones - are not harmful to us.

Go ahead and enter the creaky doors of that Haunted House. Watch that spooky movie and let the CHILLS run up and down your spine. Decorate your home and yard with ghosts and monsters and witches and zombies; later imagining them all coming to life in the dark of the night.

Guess what will happen when you experience that FEAR? N-O-T-H-I-N-G.

Fear can never harm you though it can be a difficult emotion.

Use this Half-Way to Halloween to create a space for fear that YOU control.

Feel the fear and THEN pay attention to your THINKING. After all, it is your THINKING that is CREATING the fear in the first place.

Change your thinking; change your feelings. Master your thinking; master your life.
