Why Your Truth Fears Your Fear???
By Muhammad Ilyan Ahmad Introduction: The Silent Struggle of Truth: “Speak your truth” is empowering, but what if your truth feels too heavy? It’s not false—it’s raw, vulnerable, and tangled with fear. Your truth senses the risks: rejection, conflict, or unraveling your life. So it retreats, mirroring your hesitation.

The Last One Waiting
Left Behind, Watching When the world moves forward and you're still standing on the platform I disappoint them. A shut mouth: what is the point? Trembling lips, and all morning I have disappeared like a turned down flower. I would like them to see the last of me, wherever this goes, however it ends, but I send them away quickly. And if they try coming back, I will send them away again. They do not belong here, nor I with them. Like the slow train cutting diagonal across the road. Where is it going? Into a field to disappear, where it will become grass, then hay. In the distance the cows are specks, and up close they are blobs, and all my figuring cannot stop life from being so. If I were good for them they would stay, and if I were meant for them, I would be capable.

Living on the Emotional Edge: Understanding Cyclothymic Disorder
Introduction Everyone experiences emotional ups and downs. A burst of excitement one day, a dip in motivation the next — it's part of being human. But for some, these fluctuations are more than just ordinary mood shifts; they form a persistent, confusing rhythm that quietly shapes their entire life. When your inner world feels like a never-ending ride between minor emotional highs and unexpected lows — without ever tipping fully into mania or deep depression — it might not just be personality. It might be Cyclothymic Disorder.

The Complexities of Co-Dependency
Have you ever met a person who couldn't do the simplest of tasks on their own? That person might even be you. There is always a deeper understanding of things like introverts, extroverts, the ego, etc., within society. The idea that someone doesn't like to be surrounded by noise isn't too uncommon. Just like the idea that an individual is their best drowning in a sea of people. Sometimes, you can struggle with an entirely different aspect of self. One that might even make you lose your own. Co-dependency.

"The Interpretation of Dreams" by Sigmund Freud: A Journey into the Unconscious Mind
"The Interpretation of Dreams" by Sigmund Freud: A Journey into the Unconscious Mind "The Interpretation of Dreams" is not just a book; it is the foundation of modern psychology and a journey into the mysterious world of the unconscious. First published in 1899, this book revolutionized our understanding of dreams. Dreams are no longer seen as random or meaningless images; instead, they are glimpses into our hidden desires, fears, and experiences. Freud's writing is a blend of science, philosophy, and personal discovery. This book explains how dreams are formed, their connection to the unconscious mind, and how they reveal hidden truths through symbols. Although it can be challenging, for those interested in understanding the human mind, it is a feast for the intellect.

Why we trust some people and not others
A story of instincts, quiet observation, and the subtle signals of character. --- In the heart of the valley, where the hills rolled like sleeping giants and the river carved stories through the land, stood a village called Eldenbrook. It was a quiet place—steady, honest, unhurried. Life moved to the rhythm of the seasons, and the people valued truth like gold.

The Psychology of Hoarding: Inside the Mind of Compulsive Accumulation

Far from being a lifestyle choice or mere disorganization, Hoarding Disorder is a serious psychological condition now formally recognized in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5). Despite its prevalence, the disorder remains largely misunderstood, stigmatized, and underdiagnosed.

The Age of Secondhand Emotions: How Social Media Has Turned Us Into Borrowers of Other People’s Feelings. AI-Generated.
There was a time when feelings were private. Grief happened behind closed doors, joy was shared over phone calls, and anger was reserved for real-world confrontations. Now, all of it is broadcast, looped, liked, and commented on. In the age of Instagram Reels and TikTok For You pages, feelings are no longer just felt—they are performed, consumed, and echoed. We are living in the age of secondhand emotions, where we experience feelings not through our own lives, but through the curated and choreographed lives of others.
