💡The analogy is as old as time. The renowned psychiatrist believes that our goal should be to keep adding pearls to our string, without judging or overanalyzing them.
➡️Analysis itself is good, but overanalysis on a repeated loop keeps us stuck in the problem; therefore will lead to pain, and then suffering.
➡️Stopping progress to overanalyze does not magically give us solutions. Only focus on solutions will do that 😉

The age ol' question when we wonder if we are being manipulated by a partner. 🤔But the answer is not straightforward, despite what outsiders might advise or what we later believe we "should have done" in 👀 hindsight 👀

Divorce and/or separation are difficult, but they are at a higher level of conflict if the other person fits the personality traits of narcissism or high-conflict individuals. The average divorce in Ontario takes 4-6 months and that includes cases where custody is discussed. If you are embroiled in family court processes with these high-conflict personalities, you need to prep for the long haul, as it will likely take years to resolve.

Different cultures and communities see coercive control differently. But the key take-away is that they do all see it. When it comes to getting support from others in your community, it is important to consider the likely response you may get from them. Will they validate your experience and support you? If the answer is no, then seek another supportive group. This does not mean abandoning your culture or community. But rather understanding that trying to convince your culture why you need support while simultaneously dealing with whatever it is that is bothering you, will only increase your stress and therefore worsen your situation.

This topic is quite popular lately, yet poorly understood🤓Often people imagine that the strings are exactly like the picture, visible 🫣. Likely because at the time we're telling a story, we already feel trapped which made us look for the strings. 😎

Day 5. Accepting the truth about betrayal can be a difficult pill to take. And, on the surface, we a strong urge to prove ourselves to the person who offended us. But really, we are trying to convince ourselves that we are worthy of proper treatment by others.

Day 4. The saying goes that hindsight is 20/20. Of course we can analyze what happened and where we went wrong AFTER we gathered all the information. But think about it, you did not have all that information BEFORE, so how could you have known?! Slide to read more about how to deal with the associated shame.

Day 3. It is most important to consider whether the betrayal experience is one-time versus a pattern with that individual. Or whether it is a pattern for us to frequently excuse the behaviour and bend ourselves into a pretzel to accept it. We should ask ourselves, "Why am I doing all these mental gymnastics to accept poor behaviour from others? What am I avoiding by accepting this?"

Day 2. Betrayal teaches us to abandon ourselves. As children and social creatures, we learn via imitation. As such, if someone makes us feel abandoned and neglected, we inadvertently learn that we are somehow deserving of this. We end up internalizing this, then coping with it by either surrendering to the feeling, fighting it or trying to escape it.
