a little communication goes suchhhhhhhhhhhhhhh a long way. if you’re busy, say it. if you’re upset, express it. if you’re running late, let people know. if you don’t want to do something, be straightforward. if you’re unsure, ask. it’s so simple but so so important.
fear of communication is trauma based. you either feel like your voice doesn't matter. you think expressing how you feel is going to bring negative consequences. you're used to being silenced or invalidated.
