@elly.psychologist: There's a few ways to react when people give you the silent treatment. When given the silent treatment most people will respond by trying to think of things that will help get that person out of the silent treatment. Something else a lot of people do when faced with silent treatment is to start saying really extreme things, like you're trying to trigger that person to get some sort of reaction out of them, therefore ending the silent treatment. But whichever way you try to stop the silent treatment, you're stuck in this mode of trying to get that person to engage with you again and end the silent treatment because the silent treatment is so uncomfortable. In this video I'm going to tell you how you should actually respond to the silent treatment... #silenttreatment #emotionalabuse #therapytok #therapy #abusiverelationship

The silent treatment is a form of control and manipulation. Usually accompanied by other patterns of control and manipulation. And it also most likely escalates over time.

My mother would never fall for that. I just waited it out. She would come around after a few days. Never clearing up the reasoning btw 😩

Nope, that line seems no good.
"I'm here when you're ready" kinda gives off the vibe that one is waiting for them to answer which leaves a door wide open.

Why give them more of you by sending them a message? Silent treatment means block and delete
