Internal Emotional Collapse & The Trap Test
Manage episode 424478431 series 3579217
#003. We discuss two topics in this episode that affect a lot of relationships. These are a phenomenon that I call an Internal Emotional Collapse, which is when one partner in the relationship becomes so flooded with negative emotion during difficult conversations with their partner, that they emotionally collapse inside. The other topic is what I call The Trap Test, which is a pattern of self-sabotage in relationships. Both of these have pretty strong roots in emotional neglect or trauma in childhood, and both can be effectively managed through good emotional communication skills.
