@drjulie: 👉No.3 can destroy your relationship. Here's why: numbing painful emotion becomes so habitual that we are mostly unaware that we are doing it. What started as a series of small behaviours that helped with painful experiences and memories, become an automatic response. But numbing the most painful feelings can start to have a similar effect on the more pleasant ones that you want to keep. Your mood drops, you feel less excited about things, and even feelings of love can be difficult to cultivate. In some situations, this causes the questioning of the relationship. Feel free to share @drjulie ❤️ 👉 When it comes to dealing with painful emotion and relationships, my books have you covered. ‘Open When...’ was an instant No.1 Sunday Times and New York Times bestseller.. Also check out my million copy bestselling 1st book ‘Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before?’ Both are available across the world in over 40 languages. If you brought a copy of either of my books thank you for the support 🙏
