Yes, when it comes to double standards and hypocrisies and the way these things can impact your feelings/my feelings, the first thing I do to try to mitigate perhaps an 'over the top' reaction from me, is to ask myself with sincerity and real honesty - no censoring, no justifying, no juggling the facts etc etc - is if I myself am acting with double standards and hypocrisies anywhere in my own life (I mean we're just people right? not gods. And usually the answer is 'yes' I have them - and I thnk we all have them.) At that point it's a case of well, I want to iron that out from my own inner being first before pointing the finger - Inner stability, not anger and retribution, is the key thing for me with my mental health.

But double standards are everywhere in life. If these people annoy you put boundary up. If not annoy you - accept with love
