@missclairebenjamin: 🚨 Handling the “emotional dumper”👇 Sometimes people get caught in a cycle of emotionally dumping onto us and not moving forward. It can be incredibly tiring to keep listening to this even when you want to be supportive. Often people aren’t aware they’re doing this so it can be helpful to disrupt the dynamic and raise their awareness supportively. I would recommend the following steps: 1️⃣ Politely interrupt them and say something like: “[NAME] sorry to interrupt you mid-flow. I can see how much this situation is getting to you and I really want to be supportive” 2️⃣ Share what you’re noticing to raise their awareness 3️⃣ Seek their input by asking them how you can best support them 4️⃣ If you don’t feel like you’re the right person to help let them know and suggest someone else who may be able to support them. 📌 Please be mindful that the approach shown in this video will not fit every situation so always use your own judgement and adapt it to suit your own circumstances.
