07 Stuffing
Emotions start wars. Although they are invisible, weightless, and volumeless, they are nonetheless very real and very powerful. To stuff them is really to engage in a futility, for they will come out somehow.
We spend much time these days talking about emotional regulation, controlling our thought lives and being rational, reasonable human beings. And this is well and good. Allowing our emotions to drive our choices can harm us psychologically, relationally and even physically-as health problems have been correlated with labile emotional states. But there’s a tendency in human nature to go to extremes. We might reject emotionalism and end up stuffing our emotions. See, emotions are like children. We might not let them drive, but we do attune to them, listen to them, and gather valid information from them. And ultimately, we want to learn to express them.
Replace stuffing with appropriate emotional expression. One if the most important sentences you can learn is “I feel _____.” Admitting the way you feel to yourself and to people you can trust, can stop an emotional cascade in its tracks. Paradoxically, accepting emotion is the first step of changing it. Admitting feelings puts us in a position where we take responsibility for what we feel. Apart from that responsibility-taking, we will likely try to shift the responsibility to someone else, accusing and attacking them, and thus harming the relationship.

Negatively interpreting other people can create terrible frustration in a relationship. We human beings love to be known and perceived correctly. In fact, in most cases, we’re willing to let go of being agreed with, if we are simply understood. The replacement for misinterpreting is checking in. Don’t be overconfident in your own interpretation of the matter. Check in and make sure you heard th...

We we’re hit with a disturbing reality, our first impulse is to deny its existence. Denial is a defense mechanism to keep us from having to face painful or frightening information, an unconscious refusal to accept facts. And it’s normal and even healthy in some situations, but as with so many adaptive aspects of human psychology, the very thing that preserves us in a crisis, can destroy us if w...

Human beings are social creatures, created in the image of a God of relationship. Because of this, we are innately programmed with certain social needs. We can’t deprive ourselves of these needs and be healthy any more than we can deprive ourselves of the need for good food, water, sunlight, or exercise. Studies have shown that loneliness can increase mortality by 50 percent-comparable to the m...

The next deadly relationship sin is invalidation. Unlike escalation, invalidation can be quite subtle. Often it comes in the form of trying to help: “Don’t worry,” “Don’t be angry,” “Don’t cry.” Research conducted by Stanley, Trathen, and McCain of University of Denver revealed four negative patterns that were: 1) present in almost all failed relationships; 2) strong predictors of divorce; 3) o...

We are made in the image of a relational God, designed to love and be loved. Yet we seem also mysteriously wired toward dysfunction in our relationships. How can we get back to what we were meant to be? Beyond the obvious relationship sins such as stealing, infidelity, murder, abuse and lying, what are the more-subtle practices that break our bonds? Finding and replacing them is worth the effor...

    I feel like im always in "ALT" of halt. Thats easy to do when you live alone with a toddler, though! I've been discouraged from expression most of my life. I'm embarrassed to have outbursts as an adult, but they typically occur after I have tried so many times in so many ways, and the person still refuses to acknowledge the validity of my reality. There's a lot of gaslighting, which i can see now, but it doesn't help that the people around me do not seem to have the capacity to value my emotional wellbeing. I have one parent still alive, they withdraw any support if I share my negative feelings with them, even if it isnt about them. I have had partners "punish" me by withdrawing affection and time together, if i share negative emotions, again, even if it is something that has nothing to do with them, which they would realize if they would hear me. I don't want to stuff emotions, but i could be forced out of where i live if I didnt. I think that's a reality too many women find themselves in. I think a lot of these are good indicators of "safe" people. Unfortunately I learned that "half safe" means that the person is not actually safe. I need more emotionally safe people in my life. Thanks for the video!!

    It was at least a few years ago, but i remember struggling with the way my ex husband was speaking to me. I had a CBT tool to break down my triggers, to help me to "behave myself," when it was him with the problem. He mocked me, in front of my sister and a friend, and I immediately walked away, while he shouted after me to stop making a big deal out of it. I remember using the CBT tool to write out, "just because he mocks me doesnt mean he doesnt have respect for me." I remember staring at that sentence; isn't that exactly what it means?! So the tool I had was limiting my ability to see when things were actual problems and which things werent. By the time i asked him to leave, my ex couldnt bring himself to speak to me in a civil way for a minute at a time. It was crushing. I liked seeing mocking on this list, because it definitely can be invalidating!

    What needs to be understood is a lot of people are not in self pity, but traumatized. Only those who have discovered they are traumatized can begin to have compassion & understanding toward themselves, after a lifetime or maybe even just one horrific life circumstances. Many people are trapped in very bad life situations. Describing them as sinning is not really helpful nor true.

    I have a son who in his late twenties suffered a. Trauma , he had taken anti -inflammatory prescribed medication and after a week or so his intestine bled out. We tried many approaches and at last resort he was admitted to a hospital and was given diff medications to stem the large intestine bleeding. After eight blood transfusions and a year being hospitalized, he was finally operated on having his large intestine removed. A second operation was an internal bag . This changed him and he became a different person, looking for solutions to his constant pain and having to go to the washroom often. We tried to help him monetarily , but he seemed always wanting , . He did have a girlfriend at on time but his character was selfish and uncompromising. He has a good education and skills . He put that to the wayside and wanted more. We helped him with his bucket list, his music , buying expensive instruments. I thought this music would amount to some kind of satisfaction. He has a technical diplomat and other but he left that to the wayside. We are his sole supporter and there seems no end in sight. He doesn’t look for help , only doctor appointments for his medication. I believe he dwells in some kind of disassociated world. My wife and I are at wits end. He is now in his mid forties and no way improving his lifestyle. I am once retired and working again as a teacher , and wonder where this will all end.

    Sunshine vitamin or steroid hormone was the most powerful medicine on earth on every living things given by our CREATOR. Sun Exposure The best way to get vitamin D3 is through sun exposure. Go outside and get some sun, especially in the mid-day when it’s the strongest for at least 15 minutes daily of sun exposure. However, many of us use sun block, which is good for our skin but not so helpful when it comes to the production of vitamin D3. By blocking out the UVA and UVB rays, sun block can interfere the skin’s ability to synthesize vitamin D3. GOD BLESS.

    I have 'learned helplessness' and I have great difficulty being proactive, which has had a huge personal and financial cost to me and those who I love. This is linked to me having huge trouble making decisions for myself. I'm a perfectionist, so am afraid of making the 'wrong' decision, as I find it really hard to assess the possible consequences that might occur if I pick 'A' or 'B', so I tend to put off making decisions. When a decision is then forced upon me and I don't like the outcome, I can see how I wasn't thinking rationally when I had the choice of 'A' or 'B'. The possible consequences were predictable, but I just didn't act on foresight at the time. I don't recall being a victim of trauma or abuse, but I do remember my parents made most decisions for me as a child, and even as a middle-aged adult, I still seem to expect decisions to be made for me.
