Deep dives

Understanding Internal Confusion

Internal confusion can significantly impact behavior and communication, especially in high-stress situations. When feeling overwhelmed, individuals may expect others to respond in very specific ways; if those expectations are unmet, it can lead to escalation in emotions. This escalation can manifest as either aggressive outward behavior or an internal spiral of self-doubt. Recognizing this pattern is essential, as it reflects how magnified problems can complicate interpersonal relationships, making it challenging to express feelings authentically and constructively.
