Individual Therapy for Relationship Challenges in Las Vegas, NV
The terms “people-pleaser” and “perfectionist” might sound familiar. You tend to placate, prioritize the needs of others, and set unrealistic expectations for yourself as you try to balance everything. You’ve gotten so used to putting yourself on the back burner that it’s uncomfortable to bring your feelings into the spotlight. Maybe you don't even know what you really feel or need or your scared to even go there.The problem with all of this is that it actually creates one-sided relationships, and one-sided relationships SUCK! Nobody is really happy and it's damn heavy for you to feel like you're carrying it all alone. You feel drained, exhausted, and maybe even a little resentful...which probably then just makes you feel guilty which is just more weight on your shoulders. It's a vicious cycle. You might think that things would be fine if people would just meet you halfway. But they can’t pick up the slack until you drop it. And dropping it could mean disappointing them, hurting them, being judged or misunderstood, or ending up alone.
With Relationship Issues, your emotions aren’t your enemy.
Although it can feel like it when addressing relationship issues, your emotions are truly not your enemy. They’re just unfamiliar.
As kids, we navigated relationships by attuning to other people’s moods and learning to do what was expected of us. These strategies helped us stay connected and feel safe. We learned, that if we could make others feel good, we would feel good. This can lead to us becoming perfectionists and people-pleasers.
How It Can Create Relationship Issues
These strategies might have helped you survive in your youth. However, now they’re getting in your way. Your emotions have become foreign to you and it's difficult to identify and acknowledge them without guilt or second-guessing yourself. When they do spill over you feel selfish, scared, vulnerable, out of control, or off your game.
Your emotions are not wrong, useless, or bad! They exist to help you get where you want to be.
