The spouse who disconnects and despises is one's secret enemy - death by a 1,000 cuts and avoidance! Life comes through life-giving intimacy and community. John 15 on the Vine.

This really nails it. What is gaslighting? How that destroys one's sanity. How that destroys couples.

Emptiness is a condition of the human spirit. The human spirit is your personal core. It is core to your identity, bonding, empathy, and emotional resilience. Feeling empty is an indication that one’s human spirit is off-line, not available, shut down. To confirm this see if it is accompanied by: * less empathy - feeling what other’s feel, * less sense of being present to others,... * less intuition about your life and * some confusion about who you are, what is your purpose, etc. See more

I learn that clients love the understanding I provide to them in a session with George. I understand 'family pain' as the client writes: "It helps that you understand what family pain and scapegoating is. Although I have never heard others use these terms before, I can completely relate to them. As I shared with you, I feel such debilitating emotional pain as a result of the family pain and scapegoating that I experience, that it causes me ongoing bouts of negative thoughts, ...self doubt and deep depression. I have spoken with other counsellors before (and even close friends) about my family life and they often just told me to just brush it off, think positive’, etc., and they just don’t understand why I can't just move on. The pain I feel is so deep-rooted, and ridden with guilt, shame, fear, blame, negativity, and often feels very lonely. I often feel very stuck in my life, with this very heavy constant sense of doom and gloom and worry about life (not able to move forward, to move past this pain), and to achieve the goals I would like to for in my personal and professional life and in my relationships with friends and family. There are not many people who understand how difficult family pain can be, and I feel a sense of relief to know that I have been able to connect with you, someone who understands what I am going through, and especially from a spiritual point of view. I feel a sense of hope that things can turn around from here.

Do you know someone so radiating God's love that people around them gain energy, motivation, and healing? These are the radiant people.

Information web-site on EMDR therapy. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a simple highly effective method of enhancing psychotherapy and providing therapy up to more people. It is becoming a therapy of choice for PTSD from the military and first responders.

This really nails it. What is gaslighting? How that destroys one's sanity. How that destroys couples.

What is the difference between a people pleaser and a codependent?

Are people with avoidant personality disorder misunderstood socially and professionally, and how does this manifest? Well, yes they are misunderstood a lot. Their friends and social contacts will not realize they their friend is avoiding sharing anything personal. If a friend is concerned with them, they will invest a lot of effort in correcting and persuading their friend that there is no problem. They are good at staying undercover. The same applies to professional contacts.... They are very good at hiding, following the rules and mechanically meeting expectations. Only in marriage do you get partners who realize something is wrong; this isn’t a real marriage. This may take a lot of time. The marital partner feels vague dissatisfaction but can’t put a finger on it. The avoidant personality is again very good at hiding while complying outwardly. Do you know the story about the Stepford Wives? The Avoidant wife could be compared to a Stepford wife - mechanically meeting all expectations but consistently avoiding all intimacy. One may be confused by their appropriate and friendly outward appearance and the potential for real love and bonding with the avoidant person or in their marriage.
