@melrobbins: If someone you love is going through a hard time, you have to fight the instinct to want to jump in and fix it for them. They don't need you to solve their problems. They need you to support them as they figure it out. Hear more from my conversation with renowned scientists Dr. Heather Berlin and Dr. Christof Koch on the @Perception Box Podcast 🎧 "Stop Trying to Fix People: Mel Robbins on the Power of Letting Go"
Me! 😭💯 but because I think it’s my job to help solve it, nothing else to it.

When you realize this as a parent, I thought I could fix it, just can’t, loosen the control which kills us every day, sleeping, getting up, go to work, come home and just want peace, can’t fix him, but we are the enemy

AMEN! You just more clearly articulated. Why I today! Told my sister (70) in Serious crisis- that after 3 weeks. Of researching, on her behalf, Resources, Educational links, related to her situation, etc- that moving forward. I will. BACK OFF. And still. Root, be in emotional support, of her. The Timing of this post. Is. Crazy! Thanks, Mel!

The other thing is how about if it’s said it’s just your imagination and nothing wrong/bad is happening but as a mom you feel that wrong/bad things have happened so as a mom I react on my imaginations. It doesn’t make sense to me. So now I’m the bad person.

Finally figured out that I cannot fix people's lives anymore especially if what they are going through is something they created or allowed. I listen if they need to vent but don't offer more than that. I protect my peace above everything else.

ANDREW ONLINE FITNESS COACH :
Such an important question when you’re about to jump in and fix something: “Does this person actually need my help - or am I trying to relieve MY discomfort from watching them struggle?”

Sometimes people are not looking for solutions. They just want to feel heard and understand.
