A text-based quote on a light blue background from Marian Keyes about the pressure of toxic positivity and the importance of acknowledging the lasting impact of difficult experiences.

I think there is pressure on people to turn every negative into a positive, but we should be allowed to say, 'I went through something really strange and awful and it has altered me forever.' By Marian Keyes

Toxic positivity "Positive vibes only." "Look on the bright side." "Everything happens for a reason." "Stop being so negative." "Just don't think about it." "Others have it worse so quit being so negative." "You are just making excuses. Others can do it, so can you." "Just be positive." "Just be grateful it is not worse."

Toxic positivity

I don't believe our world needs more positivity. I believe our world needs minds that are equipped to be with the complexity of life. Minds that can hold nuance and polarity. Minds that can stay grounded, centered, and open to the full range of what it means to be human. By @corymuscara
