If you can’t think of anything for this, I encourage you to reflect simply on the act of keeping secrets and why we sometimes have to/choose to keep things private, how you feel about that, whether you’re a good secret keeper, etc.

In 10 sentences or more.
Please help me.

We keep secrets to protect ourselves and our relationships, and secrecy can achieve those effects. It hurts to keep secrets. Secrecy is associated with lower well-being, worse health, and less satisfying relationships. Research has linked secrecy to increased anxiety, depression, symptoms of poor health, and even the more rapid progression of disease.

Answer:

Keeping secrets are often bad things but, they can be good. Some people keep secrets to save people and that can be a good thing. Some secrets are kept for the sake of keeping drama out and that can also be good. Personally, I am a good secret keeper however, I do not feel keeping secrets are always good. Some secrets do not need to be kept and some do. Therefore, I feel neutral about keeping secrets. Keeping secrets can be good and bad and thus why I have no set feeling on it. Although keeping secrets can be good, it can create a big weight on you and that can be very stressful and self draining, and that, is not good. Say your best friend did cheated on a test, and someone asks you about it. Keeping that secret can be bad for you but good for them so they don't get in trouble. However, if the truth comes out you both get in trouble so, I say you have to pick and choose which secrets to keep and which ones not to. In conclusion, keeping secrets can be good or bad but sometimes we need to choose which secrets to keep.

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this is okay :) have a good day :)
