what is the difference between a weakness and an anti-strength?

a weakness represents a lack of a particular strength. for example, empathy is low for me. that doesnt mean I don't care about people. it means that I don't notice cues of how someone is feeling. sensing how someone is feeling is a weakness.

an anti-strength represents a talent is triggered and you viscerally react, resulting in consequences you don't want. the cycle gets worse. you don't want to be this way so you try to suppress this urge to react, which is the equivalent of trying to suppress a talent. two things can happen. you can be successful in suppressing and now are operating without your talents or from a place of weakness. you're unsuccessful and the visceral reaction continues.

rock, meet hard place.

so what should you do about it.
