UNDERSTANDING DOUBTERS AND DISBELIEVERS | NAVIGATING TOXIC FAMILY DYNAMICS
243How do you feel when no one believes you?
What about when your family doesn't believe you?
What do you do when you share your emotions, thoughts, and concerns about life with somebody, and they completely minimize you?
Do you stop talking about the situation entirely or do you bring it back up at a later time?
Being apart of a toxic family dynamic can make trusting others (including relationships of all kind) almost impossible.
Some things need to be challenged or questioned. But other things don't.
In a toxic relationship or toxic family situation, it is common that your experiences may have been minimized.
In this live chat on toxic family dynamics and relationships, I discuss the psychology of not being believed.
