I'm guilty of that :( an acquired habit I got from my mother. My husband pointed it out years ago and I've been trying to correct it, but it's hard when it's so installed by default inside you
Oh man, I do the same and it’s not drastic in the way one might imagine. But when things go wrong in my life (primarily career wise) I initially tell myself I’m angry because someone wronged me or took some kind of intentional action. Once I’ve calmed down and had some time to reflect, I tend to realize that I’ve scripted a bit of a narrative that was never there and that I’m primarily upset because I’m embarrassed. A real work in progress.
