    Sir, thank You so much! All these years I've been thinking it is me rejecting them by going low contact and moving away. But now I do reflect and realize that they were rejecting me so strongly that they pushed me away into low contact. You lifted a stone from my heart. Thank You Sir.

    The huge shift in empowerment happens when you’ve been demonised, ostracised, shunned & excluded for much of life & you’ve survived, prospered & individuated through that pain. You can then just look at them & say “and” 🤷🏼‍♀️ because you can see as sad as it is, nothing good happened for them, in fact, they ate themselves & each other alive.

      That’s a really helpful way of looking at things, Marianna. Thanks for sharing your take on it. I’m now 52-years-old and the youngest of three. After a lifelong struggle of trying to understand my siblings’ conditional love toward me, they ostracized me, because I didn’t cave in to an unreasonable request of theirs. But thinking about how they’re eating each other alive gets me thinking how I’m fortunate to have freedom from that. They have nothing else to take away from me.

      Your words are so true and they absolutely ate themselves and each other alive. In my case I was thrown in the midst of parents so sick that they were drooling for me to be born so they could enjoy profoundly abusing me in every imaginable way. That I walked out as soon as humanly possible made them hate me X 10 which I wouldn’t have imagined possible. 1 down, 1 to go until planet earth is safer.

    When my mom asks me why I’m stupid(or whatever it is), I tell her it’s ok to be stupid. That lets her know that she’s ok, since she’s the one that feels stupid. It stops her right there. And I think it really helps her accept herself and her feelings.

    This helped me to realize how many people projected their own personal issues on to me... which ended up making me feel bad about myself and allowed then a moment of relief to not have to DEAL with what was going on within them. They didn't have to deal with their feelings of unworthiness, feeling unloved and unsuccessful... This was healing/freeing!.. Now I have to fin watching it lol

    My mum had so much apprehension fears and anxiety that as a child I had to be like her so she was happy also because I thought I had to feel like that because that was caring for me caring for the others, she didn’t have any self-esteem so she didn’t encourage me to do anything at all in case I failed because she thought I was gonna fail so destroying for me on the other side I had PN dad good girl interpretation and saying yes and having the same thoughts and opinions as him obviously I live in between victimising and interpretation of crying with my mum and shouting and fear et cetera. Etc and long etc I’m totally recovered now is the fact that you get conscious that you were not that guilty? You’re not the problem you were the victim. You were the innocent when you see that you realise what you’ve gone through you feel so proud of yourself on the survivor you feel a good person you feel the person that you always knew you were and now you discover yourself again you xxx

I never apologize and if they insist I will ask for a tangible example and mirror them back, well show me how you have proven your love then....Family system is such a Cancer, I choose to practice healthy habits and not feed the gangrene !

    Update #2: Where you say we want to steal the power out of that hidden anxiety, the metaphor that came to my mind (and this is gross, so brace yourself!) was "we want to pop that hidden anxiety boil and drain the power out of it" (eew! but I warned ya!)

    I know this video is 2 years old, but I now remember something from my childhood. My parents (mostly my dad) would have terrible fights and require me to be present to listen. I was pressured to pick a side. I remember many times they would wake me up at night and make me get out of bed to listen to them argue. I feel anxiety rising up in me just thinking about these childhood memories. I was a stressed out child, always trying very hard to please them both. They labeled me as overly sensitive. I love both of them deeply.

    Thank you, Jerry! I listened to the video while cleaning my house. I truly enjoy your insight and am learning a lot from you. I believe my sister may be a narcissist and have been trying to learn how to navigate our relationship for years. I've tried to go no contact for the past 3 years, and recently she sent me a gift. My mother is pressuring me and making sure I send a "thank you" to my sister. I do not want to accept this invitation back into an abusive relationship and am not sure how to stop my flying monkey mother. But, I am learning clues from your videos about how to navigate all of this and be myself.

    Thanks for another great video, Jerry! In energetic terms (as shamanic practitioners might see it), these games are also always a bid for your psychic energy. They don't care if they get positive feedback or negative feedback, it's all digestible energy for their shadow aspects of consciousness. If you think of how tired you are after interacting with these folks, you'll realize how true that can be in a felt sense. All attacks and criticisms, and all plays of being miserable and pitiable and needy are bids for your psychic energy. It seems adults who are emotionally arrested at age 2 are desperate for attention of any kind, and being at a low vibe state, they are perfectly happy to feed on low vibe energy. Yours, if you're willing to produce it for them. Self differentiation gives you the power to retain your energy, not give it away. Interestingly, the less of your energy they get to feed on, the less often they will make bids for it. Call it behavior modification for the extremely immature. In fact, if you're extremely boring, giving no info of interest (which they were only going to use against you later anyway), sounding bored and being boring, offering little information, they will reduce calling you more and more. You're not feeding the beast in them that wants to feed on your energy, so they turn elsewhere to locate people who want to rant with them (about whatever) or complain endlessly with them or feel pitiful with them. If you make a fit playmate for them, they'll keep coming to you more and more to play those kinds of games.
    I personally don't like affirming the bad things they assert about me, it's unhealthy programming for my subconscious mind (which is a loyal dog but not very bright, it enacts whatever I tell it is true, helping make it more true). But I can cheerfully assert, "You're certainly entitled to your opinion." That's another way to not bite the bait. Just because they're baiting me doesn't mean I have to take the bait, so I try as much as possible to just stay detached, mature, and cheerful. Even saying that can give rise to a hot fit of rage from the offerer of the bait, but you can still stayed cheerful and detached. Just kept being unwilling to be upset in any way. They may give you weeks of blessed silence if you refuse to feed the beast. They'll think they're punishing you, of course, but take peace wherever you can get it (is my philosophy anyway).
    It helped also when a therapist reminded me that they (they, not me) are responsible for their choice of emotional state. Abusers are responsible for their choice of game playing. They are responsible for their choice of attitude. They are responsible for their choice of refusing to grow up. And for not genuinely seeking therapy for their anxiety, rage, or depression issues. They are responsible for the consequences of their insistence on being a perpetual victim (who meanwhile doesn't give a rip about you and enjoys beating you up emotionally).
    In fact, they generally won't work on these things unless they must deal with the consequences, as long as everyone is indulging their BS. They are extremely stubborn and need to experience the consequences of their own choices and their years of unwillingness to go seek professional help (instead of abusing and manipulating everyone around them). I guess things need to get problematic enough for them to motivate them sufficiently to make the effort to make their lives more appropriate and more respectful of other people's individualization. So it's not only bad for our mental health and growth to keep playing these head games with them, it's bad for their growth and potential maturity as well.

    You really teach me what other parenting style there are, you are able to be firm with your kids while still being compassionate even if they misbehave and reacts aggressively. In my own culture, a child will not even dare talk back to their parents, he will be severely beaten or punished, for 'disrespecting an elder" I never approved of this style of parenting but since it is the norm in my country of origin I sincerely didn't know how to educate differently. I hope you will do a video that teaches parents how to be compassionate while being firm.

      This can be an interesting specific topic. I will say that the whole process of thinking that I teach in my videos could be applied to raising children- it's always about self differentiation, self regulation, self definition and knowing how to take a stand while staying connected to others.
      If you want something more specific this book does a good job explaining exactly what you're looking for- www.bookdepository.com/Connecting-with-Our-Children-Roberta-M-Gilbert/9780471347866?ref=grid-view&qid=1654425667316&sr=1-1

    This was incredibly helpful. Very thorough very reasonable commissary balance very details with lots of good examples. And all with the sincere sharing that you have been through something like this yourself so it's not just didactic learning on-the-job training or whatever that funds your knowledge of how these things work. I feel hopeful for the first time in a while not that I can change anyone else but that I don't have to deciding mediately whether to go no contact and feel secure that I had no other choice and therefore sad as it is won't be regretting it later. I have a way to protect myself without trying to change them or even the outcome, so that things unfold in the way that will reveal the truth in the long run.

    Also we need to address the issue of the erroneous way we loosely use words like stupid, idiot etc. If an individual behaves what we perceive wrong or faulty. We need to use the appropriate language. For eg. You could have done this differently or next time check with someone. In my personal opinion we easily learn bad language from parents, peers, etc. But we do not realise the bad things we are passing on to future generations which builds up and accumulates like system anxiety and becomes an unconscious vocabulary which becomes our default mode of expression. Something needs to be done in this area. God bless🙏

    I’ve done so much work to get out of the system. I have to be ok with my family discarding me. I don’t have any desire to change my family, but I will not sacrifice myself so they can feel better. It’s all about controlling to get us to do what they want and when we don’t, they will get angry and reactive. That’s their bag. My sister joined a religious organization and kept calling me a sinner and trying to convert me to be a good person and find God. I told her that I feel connected to God and I am just a human making my way and I’m ok with that. I told her in the best way possible because I do care about her and want her in my life that I will talk to her about other things but I will not talk about religious subjects. She got all upset and told me that I was going to fry in Hell and my prayers are wrong prayers and she told me that she doesn’t have anything else to talk to me about. I said, “ok.” She let me know her opinion of me and I’m ok with that but I won’t sacrifice myself so she can get glory from attacking my character. I have found that it is best NOT to discuss spiritual matters with others as they can get all crazy and preachy for hours. It’s like opening a can of opinion/bigotry Hell.

    • @squarepeg418
      @squarepeg418 3 роки тому +2

      Not to bring up religion, because Jesus is about as anti religious as one can get, but your sister has the gospel all wrong anyway and IS using it to control behavior instead of loving people, which love is actually one of the only three commands Jesus gave. Seems you got that love your neighbor thing down pat ❤️

    @SusanaXpeace2u 4 роки тому +2

    I want to unplug from my family system. I am not in touch with them right now, and they're punishing me for being hurt, so in a way it's a rest from them, but I know there'll be some stressful confrontation around the corner. I need to under react when it happens, but still hold my boundaries. But...my boundaries are that they can't call me paranoid /emotional anymore. So, I have to do enough work on myself that I have evolved beyond the point of caring that they hurt me, don't care if they hurt me, get angry with me for feeling hurt.............. and eventually this will not feel like being a doormat? I feel like I get this but that last piece of the jigsaw, getting to the point where you care so little that it provokes minimal reaction in you, that still seems a tall order.

    @luguy8347 5 років тому +4

    System logic..opposite/reversal. They say, the one that holds the silence controls the relationship. The silence, withholding can be used to abuse, too. I don’t listen to “you statements”, their fighting words. I have very bad fight and flight anxiety, it’s like being in shock continuously. Like someone surprises you, that sudden reaction is how I feel 80% of the time. I’ve tried everything including Ketamine infusion, 8 of them. It’s from C-PTSD and very fear base, and I think shame base too. Yes, it is contiguous, I make others feel my worry, not intentionally, of course. I try and hide it as best as I possibly can, because I know I effect others. That’s why I try everything to be stable for my family. Framing, choosing our words consciously is very important to me. Like at a swimming pool, a child running, instead of telling the child to “stop running” on the deck, I say “ please walk”. Walk vs running, set a different imagery. Self defence deflects, my husband is defensive about everything, including passing the salt. PING, PING, PING, so interesting. Holding it....Hidden anxiety......core underneath. Unplug. Respond not react. John Bradshaw from the mid eighties on PBS. Good stuff. The Nibble Effect, was a book on pinging. Also, we ask in our house, “ who is your behaviour pleasing”. It’s usually someone else in the background.

      @luguy8347 5 років тому

      Betty Wormsley you must look into PTSD, the beatings, and abuse one suffers for years afterwards. The cycle of domestic violence is important to understand. The honeymoon stage, tension period then boom, explosive behaviour, out of control, blaming, justifying. The victim is always innocent, remember that. It’s about power and controlling others that makes the abuser go off. Control comes from within. Not by controlling outside of self or others. The more the abuser is controlling, the more dangerous it is. When one is leaving an abuser is the most dangerous time for the victim. Victim has zero power to change an abuser. ZERO.
