Do you ever think:
* I should be happy, I have a job and my own house
* I should be happy, there are people worse off than me
* I should be happy, I have lovely friends or family
And what do I think to that?
Says who?!
When you use the word ‘should’, it means at some point you have been given messages about what you’re expected to feel - and could be dismissing how you actually feel
Like as a child when an adult gives you a present and you feel really disappointed, yet you have to pretend to be grateful!
These messages (direct or indirect) from our parents, caregivers, society, teachers etc, are constantly telling us how we should be feeling - and this makes us disconnect further from how we truly feel.
If you’d like some support in accessing your feelings or working through your thoughts, I can help.
