With some, I feel easy and calm, as if I were at home. 🏡 Their presence does not require any effort, there is no tension or masks - you can just be yourself. With such people, I feel support, warmth and understanding. With them, I laugh sincerely and relax. It's like a breath of fresh air after a long day.

And with others - the opposite. Sometimes I notice that I begin to shrink, become more careful in words and actions, as if something needs to be controlled or hidden. Sometimes these are people who criticize a lot or constantly demand attention, sometimes - they are simply strangers to me in spirit. Such communication leaves a feeling of fatigue and even slight anxiety.

It’s interesting that these changes are not always related to the person themselves, but rather to my internal reaction to them. Sometimes I realize that I project my fears or fatigue onto others, and therefore my mood changes not because of them, but because of myself. 🤯 This makes me think about how important it is to be aware of my boundaries and be honest with myself about who really energizes me and who, on the contrary, drains it.

Sometimes I find myself with people who are not very close, but they are also pleasant to be around. They are like a light breeze - not too strong, but refreshing. This balance is important, because you don’t always need a deep connection to feel better. Sometimes just the ease of communication is enough.

Sometimes it seems to me that mood is like a mirror reaction to the vibrations of others. If a person is relaxed and open, it is felt and transmitted. And if there is a storm inside him - even if he does not show it - I intuitively sense it. It reminds me that we are all very interconnected, even if we do not realize it. 🌐

Sometimes I want to learn to control my mood the same way colors change on a palette. So that I don’t depend on external factors and maintain inner harmony, no matter who’s around. But for now, I’m just learning to notice these changes, analyze them and accept them. 📚

Every communication is a small reflection of myself. And I’m grateful for this experience, even if it can be difficult. After all, through understanding my inner state around different people, I get to know myself better. 💡

Have you ever had your mood change just from the presence of someone nearby? How do you deal with it? I’m interested to hear your thoughts. 📝
