Oversharing

[Sirfetch’d]

Do you tend to overshare when talking to someone?

probably

im a mess so i wouldn't be surprised if i have at some point but i do make a genuine attempt not to

Sometimes but it depends on who it is. If its friends then mostly. I know everyone at my job talks about everyone.

I undershare if anything, aha, even to good friends. Not intentional or anything, I am just used to being more closed off and don't want to annoy people with talking too much or airing my problems. @_@

More or less me. Sometimes there might be times I want to say something to someone, but then I'm like, "nah don't want to bother them" and such.

Not really. I'm pretty blunt and honest about things within the confines of a topic, but I don't really go out of my way to spill every tiny detail. I'm pretty private really.

For most of my life I kept everything to myself, even keeping most things from my family. Then eventually I went through a period where I started sharing too much, especially when it came to venting online but I think I've reigned it in a lot now. I still don't have much of a filter though so if you ask me how I'm doing or how something went then I'm probably going to tell you straight.

I was just thinking about this subject while I was on the toilet...

I have specific places to do so. If it's with friends or small discord servers/channels I probably overshare, but if it's a little more public I won't. I make use if a discord server has a #vent channel frequently.

not really. i tend to keep problems to myself when possible unless i'm asked and even then if i'm not comfortable with sharing i don't and just let is build up inside me. it's a problem when it's an issue i'm having with someone or something of the sort but it is what it is, i suppose.

I tend to hide a lot of my personal issues or problems for as long as possible, until I feel like I can't keep it to myself any longer and then proceed to tell someone such as a close friend. In regard to what I tell my friends - I think I do tend to overshare to a fault, when I do finally open up. When I became conscious of how much I was opening up, I retreated and tried to hide even more under a guise of having it together because I didn't want to continue projecting my problems onto other people. But that in a way has perpetuated this cycle of bottling emotions, telling someone when it becomes too much etc. which I know is unhealthy. I think for the most part though I am very private with who I talk to about personal issues, and even when opening up, I definitely do try to hold myself back.
