IMO, reading text without facial expression, body posture, inflection of tone, tempo of speech, hand jesters, relationship, surroundings, and what am I missing, would drive Albert Einstein nuts. I can write have a nice day! and somebody thinks why that SOB is ridiculing me? When I mean to have a nice day.
As someone already said; I read what I fear about myself into a text, conversations, and my treatment from others. I have to interpret the world without judgment to be well. It is not easy when I have to look through all my active symptoms to understand what the world is telling me. I get a distorted picture of the world. Distortion is confusion.
