Psychological
The waiting room.... Content Warning.
The door creaked shut behind the girl as she stepped into the waiting room, clutching her school bag tightly in one hand. The smell of vanilla hung in the air, and a faint hum emanated from the above overhead lights. She glanced around. The waiting room looked just like any other doctor's office she had been in. Worn chairs lined the meticulously painted pale green walls, and faded, well-read magazines strewn on the coffee table. The girl traced her eyes along the walls to an enormous clock which ticked slowly, each second dragging on as if the room itself was caught in a time loop.

Is all accuracy a pleasure to affirm?
What are the problems, and how do you get across a hard truth like announcing an illness? The starting point is to be honest with ourselves and question our true motives. When we hide the truth from someone close to us, let's ask ourselves whether we're not, after all, giving ourselves a clear conscience by telling ourselves it's to protect them. Indeed, it's sometimes to protect ourselves from fear (fear of the other person's reaction, fear of conflict, fear of what they'll think of us) that we may be led to lie. It can also be tempting to tell the other person what they want to hear.

Goodbye to Us:Thirty Years of Lies
Thirty years. That is how long we were together. No, scratch that — thirty years of endurance, of sticking to something that had been disintegrating all along. I went through a portion of my time on earth seeing someone feels like a falsehood now. A brutal, elaborate untruth that I wouldn't see. In any case, reality? It's forever been there, hiding on a deeper level, sitting tight for me to at last awaken.
