Ever been told your sensitivity is your weakness? That it’s something to hide, feel ashamed of, or “fix”?

For years, since I can remember, I believed that being highly sensitive was a fault in my personality. I hid it, I tried to change it, and I felt like it made me a failure in the eyes of my family, and later on, with other people. 

On my first job interview, I was asked (as they always do), to name one thing I would improve about myself. What did I naively say? 

My sensitivity. 😞

But I couldn’t explain why it was a bad thing to the interviewer. I didn’t get that job (thankfully) but it stuck with me that I couldn’t explain why being very sensitive is bad. So I analysed it.

 it’s so important to start building your self worth, understand what a healthy relationship is, look at the root cause of why you’re stuck in this dynamic, uncovering limiting beliefs (it’s my fault, I’m unlovable, I’m damaged” ) that are k Unhealthy Relationships, Attachment Styles, Healthy Boundaries, A Healthy Relationship, Waiting List, My Fault, Healthy Family, To Move Forward, Healthy Families

When conversations would break down with me and my wife, I would ignore the things I had done and logically justify why her response was wrong.  We didn’t always shout at each other, but I never paid attention to the part I played.   In my head, it was never my fault.   This grew into a lot of silence.   We didn’t talk things out and we didn’t open up in conversation because we wanted to avoid another breakdown or disagreement.   Because I ignored it, communication got worse.   Until I was willing to look at things differently and change my perspective on what was REALLY happening, nothing changed.   Then, all of a sudden, conversations became palatable because I was open to hearing and seeing something new.
