At the time it was the ONLY skills I knew how to respond with given past experiences & not knowing more useful skills. It was actually reacting with the mindfulness I was capable of at the time so in reality it was not silly, it was the best reaction I was capable of having to express what I was feeling.
Do I look back & say "silly"? No.....because I am capable of looking back to where I was at the time. Now with good therapy & learning mindfulness in its true form, I don't act silly (unless I am just goofing around) & I know exactly why I act the way I do. Might not end up being the best choice of actions in the long run but it is ALWAYS based on my best knowledge at the time.
