This is a teenage Asher insisting about a tragic event from his past not affecting him anymore. One question remains... is he lying?


The tragic event will be posted, but it might be a little obvious lol. Anyways, hope you like it. Don't forget to vote please! ~K

I Love it Sis Kiana!! Awesome pic!
Personally, the more someone insists defensively that a Traumatic event does not bother them, the more it obviously is affecting them, I've seen this too many times, its called a Defensive/Avoidant attitude. In a way they want help, but they dont know how to talk or tell others about it, so they put up a defense as to push it away or others, in actual hopes that some will actually ask or help them with what they cannot talk about or deal with, rather a Dichotomy/Paradoxical Mindset of sorts. Eg, whats called a "Masked" cry for help, in Psychiatric terms..

Thank you so much!!!! And wow, I actually did not know that there was a term for that, Thats really cool. I need to study those kinds of things. Very interesting
