it just makes me so fucking angry to see all the things people post about being stoic and essentially repressing your emotions and being emotionally detached. as if that's somehow a superior way to live and anyone who doesn't do that is wrong somehow, or unenlightened. maybe it's just because my life is so based around my emotions but i can't help but feel like emotions are the point of life. they're so deeply human and not to express pain or suffering is unnatural and unhealthy. maybe modern internet stoicism has strayed from what it was supposed to be, but the posts i see on reddit/instagram/twitter just seem so fucking toxic and i hate that people think that's how you're supposed to live. is this just me?
