Toxic Positivity
"Good vibes only!" is a common sentiment often shared by influencers. There is a lot of negative out there in the world, and it can be important to remember that there are positive things out there, too. But the problem with "good vibes only" is that it negates the fact that negativity continues to exist. Toxic positivity is a term for an overgeneralized "happy" state that minimizes and invalidates negative emotional experiences.
