Paradox of the responsible adult

"Paradox of the responsible adult":
advocate or companion says exactly same as patient: former listened to, latter barely acknowledged/too articulate to need help or support.

Suddenly begins to feel like invalidated, ignored, infantilised,or spoken-at by professionals - irrespective of needs, urgency, complexity, education, age, or life experience.

Always the same issue with advocacy and experiencing same 'paradox of the responsible adult', no matter how old or educated.

cameron paradox

The act of making someone to laugh at an unfunny joke no matter what

That joke wasn’t funny.

Did you get the joke
Yes I did

Then you would be laughing
But it wasn’t funny

That means you didn’t get the joke
You just put me in a Cameron paradox didn’t you.

Paradox Virus

I'm just a fucking toxic piece of shit that's all you have to say, like I should stop accusing just bc I am blatantly jealous and pressed about me having better clips, you mean all of your feeds are better than all my clips combined shit, not like that's a flex or anything since it's roblox you're just saying you literally do.

Paradox Virus told me that he has better feeds then all my clips combined. How does that work?
