[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think DC tends to attract the "maximizer" personality. They assume you want/need to strategize to get the best thing because that's what they do. Find more "satisficers" to hang out with, we are much more relaxed! https://www.psychologistworld.com/cognitive/maximizers-satisficers-decision-making[/quote] Yes!!! I was a satisficer in a world of maximizers and left the DMV recently. It was exhausting! It’s so much more mentally peaceful where I am now. My anxiety was always sky high especially with other moms. I once set my alarm for midnight to be sure and get my kids in to summer camp as soon as it opened after several moms saying you’ll miss it if you don’t!! But to their credit they always had shit on lockdown and freely gave advice which helped in cases like this. [/quote]
