    Wow, this video has really got me thinking about my 13 yr relationship with my lady, she makes me mad all the time, I wish I could figure it out.

      Dr. Christian Conte has a nice saying I'll paraphrase: Every story has a beginning middle and end. So we often have to remind ourselves this is just a feeling or a current state of mind we're in and with that, I think it was Dr. Christian Conte suggesteding instead of saying "I am angry", we should be replacing those words with "I have a feeling of anger inside of me right now"... It really is powerful because we're not permanently upset or angry we are just going through a temporary state like eating Jack in the Box that one time and we regret it but subconsciously we know it's not living in us forever.
      We can't control time we don't have.. You are already figuring it out by being here and by starting the process of communicating somewhere (even if it's been 10months since your post) you began a cycle of addressing concerns and finding a solution is in your subconscious.
      I'm speaking purely out of my own thought process but I think often it's the way we use our words that installs an illusion of unapproval which then triggers insecurities and before we know it their guard is up. Now we're only unintentionally putting the other In a position of discomfort.
      Without elaborating, that's how it was for me and I worked on my communication by saying things like:
      "I am not saying you're wrong.. Im saying I'm wrong! Please help me understand how to ask you blah without triggering your insecurities... Or assumptions... And it's OK I have insecurities too I want to make sure I'm not say something in a way that you don't appreciate and the same goes for you all I want to do is meet you in the middle and figure this out because I am sick of myself talking to you like this because I'm miscommunicating and I love you.. I want this to work. We need to ask ourselves how is this bringing value to us? How are we bringing value for eachother? We have to compromise for eachother and understand eachothers trigger points. We HAVE to meet in the middle on that otherwise we're going to end up losing eachother ".
      I said those things because I have to confirm with her that she's not in it alone in this together. I also wanted to be a good example to her by not saying "you" so much (like I did with you.... Or us... loll) and reassuring we're a team by saying "we.... us" etc....

    Sometimes it's not that you're trying to fix them, but rather you are drained trying to get some empathy and compassion. So it's best to leave when what you need to "fix" are fundamentals in a marriage you can't continue without.

    Thank you for your wisdom. I think that other ways in which we can feel drained in relationships that are no good for us is when you feel exploited. It's exhausting and belittling, but we ultimately have the power to say, 'It's enough." It's also draining to be on eggshells around a person, a nervous love where you feel you are not enough. And it is also draining when you don't feel known, when the person has no interest in you truly, only in the ways in which you can benefit them. These exchanges require such energy to maintain interaction that it becomes draining. There are also people who think so negatively that it is draining to hear and also draining in attempts to bring them up, to provide comfort, encouragement and brightness. In all of these contexts, you can give it your best, but in small doses only, so as to save your vital energy. And if it best to run, then run! It sometimes comes down to a struggle to save a smile. And if we lose our smile, we've pretty much lost everything else. Bless you Dr Conte! You are awesome!!

I appreciate you spreading kind words to me! Definitely sending you all my best and tons of peace!

    I appreciate a lot of what Dr conte shares , so thank you for the good done thus far . I do not value ( pun intended) his disregard for personal values . Specifically -I value faithfulness to my marriage vows above my ego’s goals . Any relationship can be draining bc of the fallen sin nature of humanity . Suggesting people divorce regardless of faith background is -frankly -irresponsible . Divorce statistically also has terrible repercussions for children . I do agree that healthy boundaries can be helpful for dating and friendships . I personally have friendships that can be draining , but a friend loves at all times . In these friendships , I have strict boundaries . May God open your eyes to these truths, radically change your worldview , and richly bless you in the process .

    The second reason should be the first u can’t change people only they can change themselves. I had broken up with this guy we are not on the same mental level and he’s got a lot to learn. Try to be the kind generous person and treat that person right. But it’s draining when ur not on the same pages. I’m a hard working person and I can’t stand someone lazy and want to not bring anything to the table. They wanna smooch off u like that’s not good. Some people are just for certain people like u said bad relationships. It’s very hurtful and emotional. Makes u feel like there are no good people who want to treat you right out here. A person can only take but so much but I’m done giving chances after chances to a person who isn’t interested in wanting to view themselves and take the time out to do some reflecting on themselves. Like I don’t like when someone rather want to bring the worst out of me instead of the good. Because I usually try to treat a person how I want to be treated. But tryna change a person is so tiresome they don’t want to do what’s good then it’s time to go. Cause yes you only get one ☝🏽 life

His behaviour was crazy and he looked so sick, as soon we got out he was much better. Now he is in a clinic specialized in this type of disorder. I cant believe how mold can affect us. I knew was something wrong with him for very long time and this is the reason why he couldn't function. I know he is a very smart and hard working man, he just was very sick and still he is.

    #2.. “Trying to fix your partner” isn’t the same as trying to/wanting to GROW with your partner, right? Well so..what happens when your relationship is struggling, and you both are aware of the struggles, but both don’t quite see eye to eye on the “WHY” of the struggles.For example, One feels that one wants to always be right,but in the same, the other feels the other always wants to be right. Stalemate!😒 and we’re Back at square 1. So then, what if the efforts to get through to the other side resonates and reflects more in one than the other, does it then become one trying to”fix” the other if they are attempting to share the knowledge in order to reach resolution together?

    Doc I have anxiety anger and depression manifested Into a raging shit show. I have 2 sons and a wife and I feel terrible for them. They are all amazing but the way I have these explosive episodes I worry I will lose them. Even if she doesn't leave me I just mean mentally. I am told I am too intelligent and don't have patience. I am very literal when I speak so when people contradict themselves or don't stick to their word it triggers me. sometimes it'snot WHAT they say but The way people say things that triggers me. I assume a lot on people's intentions and sometimes misunderstood because I am so literal. I feel like I'm wasting potential living my life this way. Everyone that knows me loves me but bc of my jeykyl n Hyde ways I've pushed a lot away and I'm sick of being the negative energy storm Ive become

      What's up brother. Thanks for reaching out. What stands out to me most in reading what you wrote is that you definitely have the key to changing the behaviors that you know you need to change, and you even know exactly what you need to do to change them; BUT, the challenge is are you really ready and willing to make those changes? You have an ability to take the energy from that internal storm and channel it into a beautiful energy for your wife and children. It will take effort, but your wife, children, and the world are all worth you giving your best effort. Sending you tons of peace brother.

    I have a question.my spouse and I have been together for seven years in March. Shortly after we had our daughter, he left his phone in the bathroom. Now this was the first time I had this guy feeling, so I took a look on his phone. Low and behold he was chatting with another woman. I confronted him about it, he changed his number and put a password on his phone. Then about or so months later, that feeling crept up again while he was on a hunting trip. I got on our carriers log in, and saw that same number. Well, this time I called her, and just asked her side of it. Dr. Conte if you could find some time, could I talk to you about this?

      Zuri Robles it sucks! Aside from this incident he is a wonderful father and husband. Since I used the account to find out he was talking to her again, he changed the password. This is what's makes me laugh, because when I ask him for the password, it either turns into an argument or he says he can't trust me. I try my best not to get in an argument in front of the kids, so I'll let it be dormant until I have actual proof. It is just so nerve racking! I don't know what to do. He won't talk about it. I know I'm not handling this the correct way. I don't think he realizes he did something wrong. I mean he apologized, but has done nothing to prove he is not doing it again.

      Ladies you need to stop trying to catch your partners out and just decide if this is the relationship for you regardless of the consequence we all know in our heart if we are loved and in love and we all no in our hearts if we are being treated right or treating someone right. just be true to yourself and don't expect your partners male or female to be all that you want, love yourself first and if they deserve you they will love you. searching there phone only leads to distrust and resentment believe me I've been there. and once the trust has gone its almost impossible to get it back..

      Our minds were screwed by the ones who brainwashed us into believing that we humans are monogam. We are not and we don't own anybody. The most of us have this eternal desire to have and to hold. Why? We are all free beings. Why can't we just live with each other without shackles? Isn't this eternal control the opposite of freedom?

      billy&bunny sloth I disagree. Then you're just fulfilling a subconscious not good enough/need for perfection mantra and it doesn't exist. As you get older, you may regret the detachment as it can be lonely. It shouldn't be draining you and causing relenting unhappiness but relationships... Real authentic relationships take work and effort.

    • @DrChristianConte
      @DrChristianConte  6 років тому +7

      I agree with Seraphim23. It's my experience that life takes effort, and that's okay. You can love someone very much, but still have things to work on in yourself, and the same is true for your partner. It's my perspective that relationships take work, and that doesn't make them bad or wrong, it just means we're human, and we're all constantly learning and striving. I appreciate the dialogue and the comments, so thank you all very much. Sending you all tons of peace!

    • @billybunnysloth9003
      @billybunnysloth9003 6 років тому +1

      I disagree with you both. I don't have to work at my relationship because even though we don't share every trait, I accept him for exactly who he is, I don't want to change him, I love him as a whole. I didn't mention perfect because nothing is perfect. I make sure he knows I appreciate him everyday, and it's mutual. I've been a counsellor for 15 years, so hopefully I know a bit about people and relationships. You obviously have different relationships to mine, and you are very happy in them which I is wonderful.

    • @DrChristianConte
      @DrChristianConte  6 років тому +3

      I love and appreciate different perspectives, so thank you SO much for taking time to comment. I wonder if we're operating on the same definition of "work;" because sometimes different perspectives emerge due to different definitions. I guess, for me, I would define "work" as "effort" in a relationship. For example, it sounds like we would both agree that relationships aren't perfect, so to me, I think it follows that it takes effort to constantly grow as an individual and with your partner. I think I might have the projection that, as a counselor, you help people grow constantly (for example, I would say that it takes effort to improve self-talk and become mindful), and I guess that's the same as what I would define as "work" (i.e., "effort"). I love that you have dedicated your life to helping others, and I'm so happy to hear that you have a loving, happy relationship. What a beautiful example! Thank you again for watching this video and for taking time to leave thoughtful comments. Sending you tons of peace! :-)
