No child should have to manage an adult’s emotions. But many of us tried! Being extra good. Extra quiet. Extra helpful. It felt like survival because sometimes it was… This behavior is not at all helpful in the long run and frankly, not effective in helping “regulate” the adults in your home 👀
If that was you, it’s very likely that the pattern followed you into adulthood. People-pleasing, anxiety, feeling like you’re walking on eggshells when conflict arises. 🥚😟
The good news is that these patterns can be unlearned. In therapy, you can start to trace where they came from, why they made sense at the time, and who you are without them. That kind of work is what we do best at Mavida Health. Become a member today and kickstart your healing journey 🤎🧠
