Coming to terms with your anxiety can be a really difficult and long process. It took me awhile before I could actually admit to myself that I was suffering with anxiety and the panic attacks I was having weren’t just one offs. Eventually you do have to accept that your feelings are valid and this is something you may need professional help with. But telling your parents can feeling like a whole different ball game. The important thing to remember is that having anxiety isn’t anything to be ashamed of, and that most of the time your parents just want you to be happy. That being said is can be really nerve wracking telling your parents, so Psych2Go has some tips to help.

1. Explain how you’re feeling.  

When I first told my mum I think I could have anxiety she didn’t really understand what I meant. I had always been a nervous child, and she just thought I was referring to that. I didn’t know how to make her understand until I explained the feelings and symptoms I got when my anxiety would flare up. Naturally this was very difficult and I felt like I was…..

Reading about abusive men and the way they think. Very unsettling and an incredible book so far. Here are my very professional notes.

what book is this?

This is from “Why Does He DO That” by Lundy Bancroft.

I’m so glad I’m seeing more and more Lundy Bancroft quotes on my dash because this book CHANGES THE LIVES OF ABUSE VICTIMS.

The programs run for rehabilitating abusive men through the courts? Bancroft DESIGNED THEM. His programs are replicated ALL OVER THE WORLD.
He literally wrote THE book on abuser rehabilitation.

Here’s a link to a pdf copy. If you haven’t read this book yet, read this book.

Can we talk about how it seems like the entirety of the book is online on PDF, this making it accessible to anyone with an internet connection?

That is how we stop abuse.

We enable everyone to know what it looks like, so that when it happens, they can shut it down.

Arm yrself with knowledge!

Changed my life, would reccomend.

Reblogging for the PDF link.

—BB

Always reblogging because this isn’t just a partner abuse thing, this is a common abuse tactic PERIOD: Parents, siblings, bosses, general assholes, etc…

http://www.pdf-archive.com/2014/07/20/why-does-he-do-that/why-does-he-do-that.pdf

new link (the old one is broken)

Pretty sure I’ve reblogged this like eight times, don’t care.

“Always reblogging because this isn’t just a partner abuse thing, this is a common abuse tactic PERIOD: Parents, siblings, bosses, general assholes, etc…”

Heads up guys. It moved again.

But if it breaks just use the sites custom search. :3 That’s how I found it.

I remember being told that love is blind, so I ran my fingers through the creases of your flaws and slowly read your darkest secrets by stroking over the scars on your skin like braille. I’ve read all of your hidden chapters and you by far are still my favourite story.

You deserve people in your life who understand you at your core. Who don’t have misconceptions about your personality or your intentions. People who not only “get you” but also care about your wellbeing and won’t betray your trust.
