1 day agoPsychology says the reason some people become gentler as they age while others become bitter has nothing to do with personality. It depends on whether they processed their grief along the way or stored it in their body and called it toughness - Silicon Canals
Grief, especially non-finite losses, significantly influences whether individuals become gentler or more bitter as they age.
Parenting

2 weeks agoMy father grew up in the 1960s and he's the toughest man I know - not because he's never been broken, but because I have never once seen him stay broken, and the speed with which he gets back up has always looked to me less like strength and more like a man who was simply never taught that staying down was an option - Silicon Canals
Men of previous generations often lacked the emotional vocabulary to process grief, leading to a stoic facade in the face of loss.

1 week agoPsychology explains people who remain joyful into their 70s aren't the ones who suffered least - they're the ones who grieved most honestly, who let the losses be as large as they actually were, and who came out the other side with enough room left to let something good back in - Silicon Canals
Genuine happiness in old age often comes from embracing grief and loss rather than avoiding it.
Careers

Retirement can lead to a profound loss of purpose, structure, and identity, creating feelings of grief and invisibility.

Psychology suggests people who become difficult to be around with age are almost always carrying an unprocessed grief - for the life they expected and didn't get, for the recognition they believed they had earned and never received, for the version of themselves they were supposed to become - and the difficulty is what that grief sounds like when it has been stored as resentment for long enough to become the way they experience everything - Silicon Canals

1 week agoThe people who seem unbothered when someone pulls away aren't indifferent. They've simply been left enough times that their nervous system learned to begin the departure before the other person finishes theirs, and what looks like calm is actually a head start on grief. - Silicon Canals
Emotional responses often begin before conscious awareness, as the body processes grief and loss through involuntary reactions.

2 weeks agoI grew up with a mother who was physically there but emotionally unreachable - and the confusion that produced, the child's inability to grieve a parent who is standing right in front of them, is the thing I have spent the most years in therapy trying to untangle and the thing I understood least for the longest - Silicon Canals
Emotional absence from a present parent can lead to profound feelings of unworthiness in a child.

When I read the scripts, I was really blown away by them. I am a fan of Taylor, and I think his writing is fantastic. To me, this just had a certain poetry to it. It was creating imagery of this place in my mind before I had even seen where it would take place. It was beautiful and lyrical.

2 weeks agoNobody warns you that grief and loneliness are two different animals that hunt together. Grief takes the person. Loneliness takes every small moment you used to share with them and leaves you standing in the kitchen holding two coffee cups out of habit, morning after morning, until you teach yourself to reach for one. - Silicon Canals
Grief and loneliness are distinct experiences that affect individuals differently, with grief being a communal event and loneliness a persistent absence.

I've been in therapy six days a week for 70 weeks, he says. I did the maths the other day: over 430 sessions. Even by US standards, that is a lot but if anyone needed to work out who they are and why they were doing what they were doing, it was Grohl.
