I can go along with this with the added provisos that:
A) People take themselves too seriously; finding that their expectations of of life don't match reality, is a major cause of problems, accepting the real self or changing the self to become acceptable is perhaps a first step.
B) Opemng up to the right person is most important, the wrong confidant can make things far worse , reinforcing negatives, much as teenagers are prone to doing amongst themselves (was once a teen, been there, done that & binned it as a bad idea).

That is excellent advice and very true. If you open yourself up to just anybody you set yourself up to possible ridicule and negative attention. Trust is definitely a factor in sharing your deepest feelings.
