Let's face it; the last few years have been rough, really rough.
Americans are living with chronic dysregulation.
For many, it started in 2016 when US politics began to shift. Politicians aggressively employ a well-known tactic to win at any cost by discounting others, breeding confusion, and sowing discord.
Since then, it seems the worst aspects of patriarchy have become part of Americans' daily diet.
It's been one kind of emotional invalidation after another (more on that later).
On top of that, many still feel the pandemic's effects. Walls, guns, and bravado are useless against such a wildly contagious disease.
But isolation is not a solution either...
It's no wonder that many are often dysregulated, feeling overwhelmed, scared, angry, hopeless, confused, numb, disconnected, and alone…
The toxic positivity movement says to "stay positive" and "keep your vibration high" rather than feel those feelings.
But that's just part of the chronic emotional invalidation…
Emotional invalidation is dismissing or rejecting someone's thoughts, feelings, or behaviors. It says to someone: "Your feelings don't matter. Your feelings are wrong."
Emotional dysregulation is also a malaise, a grime that prevents feelings of joy.
It sours relationships and dampens the mood days.
It doesn't have to be this way…
