I learned to work with language when I was experiencing chronic pain, too - it helped my mental framework a lot

In learning about this online, one thing led to another and I found out about “amaetemo iidesuka” 甘えてもいいですか? (can I relax and be my vulnerable self around you?)

That hurts my brain. I only speak one language, too though, so my brain prolly just isn’t very plastic
