@litemindedtherapy: To add some nuance: sometimes your mind is trying to create distance because conflict feels unbearable BUT other times, it may be registering a pattern you’ve been minimizing. The important distinction usually isn’t whether the thought appears, but what happens when you’re calm. Does the certainty dissolve once you feel connected again or do the same concerns remain when you feel grounded and can see the relationship more clearly? The goal is not to talk yourself into staying in a relationship that repeatedly harms you, or to treat every desire to leave as an attachment wound. It’s to become curious about the state you’re in before treating the thought as a decision. A nervous system searching for immediate relief and a grounded part of you recognizing genuine incompatibility can both say, “I need to leave” but they often feel very different once the emotional intensity passes #relationshipanxiety #insecureattachment #therapytok #avoidant #relationshiptok

This is my toxic trait for sure. We get in a fight and I want a divorce. I plan my whole life in my head. Granted we’ve been married 19 years.

Amanda 💕 :
I was in a relationship for eight years and every time we fight I did this exact thing when I finally got the courage to leave I felt nothing, I didn’t feel sad and I didn’t mourn the relationship and I think it’s because I did it so often in our relationship that when I finally left, it was already rehearsed so it felt like nothing

I don't like when I've calmed down cause I feel like I was overreacting and then the problem doesn't get talked about anymore and swept under the rug.

The question is how do I find a therapist who can do this type of analysis? I don’t want someone to coddle me. I want someone who is thinking critically about what I am telling them.
