Our relationship are core of our being and they are our support system our happy safe place; Be it marriage,live-in, love affair or any other kind of romantic relationship,A happy healthy relationship will always help you grow and empower.
Like everything in life relationship also need efforts and working on. Our relationship can become our burden also our cross to bear if we do not keep in mind our red flags.
One such major red flag is any kind of Anxiety or stress. This not only effects our daily functioning but also effects the way we perceive and see our relationship.
Anxiety and the negative thought pattern limits our ability to focus on now and builds unnecessary tention. We loose our mind over irrational fears of things won't work out which effects our intimacy and ability to trust our partner.
At times due to anxiety either we become over dependent or totally ignorant and avoid any contact.
Let us understand how we ourselves become responsible for harming our loved ones.
Our overthinking is so strong that even a simple remark or a sentence becomes an issue for us, we constantly read into every word our partner said and try to make sense of it and wonder what they actually ment as per our thinking.
this becomes a vicious cycle effecting daily communication and interaction, leading us to believe something is not ok or our partner no longer loves us.
As a result we tend to have strong reaction to everything our partner does or says. We become so guarded that only good option for us is to be offensive. We don't mean to but we don't see any other solution also.
This makes us so worried and conscious that we start believing that we say or do will end our relationship and our insecurities are at peak effecting us. We loose our confidence and self esteem so much that we are not able to reachout.
We hide our panic and anxiety and try to act normal but actually we are so worried and emotionally vulnerable that we really don't know what to do and in our mind fir to anxiety we withdraw into our shell creating isolation for ourselves and further hurting our relationship.
Our panic attack or anxiety makes us so self aware and conscious that we feel embarrassed and run away from our relationship. We go through the guilt and blame ourselves for being the way we are.
Continuous need for assurance and confirmation can also have adverse effects on our relationship because our partner might find us clinging and overpowering. This might also effect us because we might feel angry with ourselves for such continuous assurance.
Do not remain in denial and harm your relationship.
Healthy meaningful connections are possible we only need to be aware about how our condition is effecting us. Accept this and you have take first step towards working on your relationship.
