The little traps

We fall into little traps. The hamster in the brain becomes overworked and suddenly we are mired in negativity which threatens to consume us. Were we not human it would not happen but our fragility and penchant for self deprecation is a natural feature.

With age we maybe come out of them faster because we've done it so many times before. The power of the mind to fall into spiral is equalled by its ability to rescue itself from despair.

If your mind is anything like mine it can get caught up in over analysis and the need to walk away from it when it has gone too far into self critique; being trans only adding to the complexity of things.
