My mom’s always like “I’m managing your emotions”. Like mom I’ve controlled my emotions for your comfort, and doesn’t even realize what she’s saying

feelings are reactions. feelings are the reaction to actions. feelings don't change unless behaviors change. and anyone who says otherwise has extremely bad behavior. if you aren't nice to the other kids, they don't wanna play with you 🤷

I admit I suck at emotions! I’m a lot like many men. I need Emotions 101 😂 my therapist recently had me name my emotions. Calculus 1 class in college was way easier. what I was taught is “don’t show emotions” Be stoic. Living with an alcoholic, and a mean drunk, i had to stay stable. I had to stay emotionless. Or maybe I didn’t have to but I did for safety

I'm 55 and went no contact w/ my extremely abusive parents 25 yrs ago. It was painful. But, maybe it's the genx in me that feels like millennials putting their whines on public platforms is what's making the estranged parents buck up!

I was told my feelings were a choice and I just needed to start choosing differently. That’s only my feelings apparently. I’m somehow also responsible for their feelings.

They want to control everyone’s emotions but their own

Emotions are bodily sensations. You can’t change emotions. You can only change the story you tell yourself about them. But it sounds like this parent is trying to get her child to lie to herself about their emotions.

Do you know where that idea came from? Is it from a pop psychology book or something? This concept ruined my whole life actually

It’s so relieving to hear you say this. I haven’t been able to have in-person experience hearing a woman say this, much less one so educated in this field. THANK YOU😩

emotions and feelings are two different things.... feelings are more permanent while emotions are the bodies reactions to a dysregulated nervous system.

I managed to get my mom to see that what she meant to say was not what she said and that what she actually said was extremely hurtful. She literally admitted she was wrong and still avoided accountability drying it was their fault for feeling hurt cause they should have known she didn't mean it that way.

I’ve learned asking people where they got their information shuts them down so fast. A lot of people have done 0 research and can’t quote anything

emotions change by nature. like the weather. were not meant to change them. they serve a purpose.. were meant to understand them and understand that they come and go.

Also - it that’s how it works and it’s easy for them to- they should change their emotions. It’s simple right?

because if you can change that you don't like the behavior, they don't have to change the behavior
