    I definitively can back that up from personal experience. I tend to be quite good at detecting what emotional state people are in, but not why

    Due to certain mental faults I tend to assume or believe that ita because of some error on my part, but that’s often not the case, and I’ve been wrong about it many many times. Assuming I did something wrong when in reality it was something else

      Hey uh, that second paragraph?

      I am not a psychologist, but:

      unrequested unprofessional psych evaluation

      Thats probably a sign of something like being raised by abusive narcissists.

      Your natural instinct is ‘it has to be my fault’?

      Yeah.

      Because narcissists tell other people its always their fault, its their flaw or poor decision.

      Its a form, or aspect or manifestation of hypervigilance.

      Because you are so used to some new problem happening that is somehow, your fault or responsibility to fix, or address.
