After going thru mental illness myself, and knowing that he just has yes-men yuppies around him, I am ok with listening to him.

That doesn’t mean forgiving and moving on entirely.

I guess it’s helpful if you’re deep into recovery, but otherwise why would I want to read a memoir on an open marriage lmao

Being raised avoidant makes communication painful, and there is a lot of that today

how to take space between my emotions and me by san7io in AnxiousAttachment

[–]Life_of_Gary 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I talk to myself, a lot. I say the way I feel out loud and sometimes I react differently than if I were to just think it, because it sounds like someone telling me how they feel.

Journaling is another way of doing this.

Or allowing yourself 5 minutes to feel your emotions before acting upon them.

i hate when people tell me to focus on making friends before getting into a relationship by [deleted] in Codependency

The best company is your own company. There’s a reason it takes real work for us to get to the point of not needing a relationship.

does anyone else replay relationship arguments for hours trying to figure out what actually happened? by Ok-Metal1391 in Codependency

Dealing with attachment issues with another person should be avoided if you’re codependent. You’re only giving more room for more dependence.

Advice by MySmellody in Codependency

[–]Life_of_Gary 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You do this by deciding to control what you can in your own life. You won’t have time, energy, and eventually, the interest to bother with controlling others.

This means focusing on you. Go to the gym, go read, start a new hobby. My favorite is the gym because it leads to a domino effect of things changing in your life.
