Many of us were raised to be strong and we dont know how to do life in any other way. It is what our parents, grandparents, great grandparents did in order to survive. We carry so much transgenerational trauma without knowing it. Our responses to situations are usually fight, flight or freeze. We end up being in survival mode most of the time which is exhausting in itself.
Feelings are never talked about. Giving space to raw emotions is seen as a sign of weakness.
Sadly unprocessed feelings manifest as anxiety, depression, physical illness and the development of coping mechanisms that end up sabotaging our well-being. We struggle in our relationships because we are unable to clearly communicate our feelings, we misunderstand one another and are forever playing "games" without realising.
We can carry on like this and nothing will change or choose to break the generational pattern.
