#venting

Chronic complaining often masks deeper emotions like frustration, fear, or loneliness. This behavior can create an automatic cycle that reinforces negativity and powerlessness.

Venting can feel good because it provides immediate emotional release, but relying on it excessively can leave us feeling stuck without resolution.

We humans are simple in some big, basic neuroscientific ways. Venting is a tribal connection move that can strengthen relationships but may exacerbate anger.
