What to do when”You” Are the “Topic”!

Wait Stop! Don’t run into the bathroom and cry, because half the time, they’re not even talking about you! Believe it or not. Perception is half the battle. Most of time, people aren’t even the least bit concerned with us, it’s our own ego that gets us in trouble. We hear people laughing and automatically assume the worst. When lots of times, many, many times. YOU ARE not even part of the conversation. So, stop, take a breath and think positive and mostly disregard those urges to get on edge every time you hear laughter.

Now, even if you really ARE the “Topic of Discussion” and are not included in the conversation, there are things you can do to combat even that. It may be hard at first, but simply ignore it. Usually, if there is not a reaction, there is no fun in that! So most people simply stop laughing or talking about it. Trust me, a new topic will eventually come up that WILL get more attention. Time has a way of resolving many situations. You’ll see…

As life goes on, you will see how important it is to have a small circle of close confidantes to help build you up and to also keep you grounded.
