I find it ridiculous when people defend the misuse of psychology words on the internet.
No, a "narcissist" is not just someone you don't like, or someone you think appears self-centered. No, "antisocial" doesn't just mean you don't like to go out to parties or be in public. No, "trauma dumping" is not just someone sharing all of their bad experiences to you. That's "venting". Trauma-dumping is unsolicited or repeated dumping of your traumatic experiences on someone who doesn't want to hear it in order to get a response.
Please, stop misusing psychology words.

Likewise, just because someone lied to you, that doesn't mean they "gaslit" you. · 4 months ago
