“Missing someone that we’re close to - because they’ve had to go to another country, or are up in the north on a course, or went on a hiking trip with their friends - is such an unpleasant emotion, it feels peculiar to suggest that it is also, at a profound level, an extraordinary achievement and an important marker of emotional maturity. It is in no way simple for a prototypical adult to be able to miss anyone and we are often, almost without knowing it, engaged in complex manoeuvres to ensure that we resolutely won’t…”

There are also videos on the avoidant and anxious attachment relationship styles, which also feature trauma. Here's hoping you're healthy. 🤗

    people avoid deep emotional intimacy out of a fear of being abandoned or rejected. Instead, they long for emotional closeness and acceptance, without being perceived as selfish or narcissistic. This fear-based mindset prevents them from fully expressing their need for love, as they struggle to understand how to cultivate meaningful connections…

    You cannot build any kind of "relationship" with a society that has been groomed to ignore the legitimate meanings of true connection, comraderie, love, intimacy, etc. In other words, you're not going to find many gems amongst endless deserts of sand (if any).

    This one really hit home. My daughter had recently had meltdowns when I have had to leave the house. Her dad did exactly what this video said and now she brings up to me that she didn't cry. I have told her how proud I was of her and what seems to me now, encouraged her stuffing her feelings. I think it is a powerful thing to be able to express your feelings and not be told to do it a different way. I will work harder at validating how my children feel so they grow up understanding themselves instead of working so hard to in their 30s like myself.

I don't miss her.. kinda of trying to make myself believe that that's the case, but over the period of time.. during this entire struggle.. I realised that it can't be fake..I can't deny it..

My mother tells a story in which I am in tears most Mondays in kindergarten because I would tell my teacher that my dad left again. He was gone so long on an assignment that he grew a full-fledged beard! I didn't even recognize him when I saw him. 🥸 I guess after a while, I got used to missing him. He passed away last month, and this pain of missing him is a lot harder to endure than the others. Every now and again, I think he's just going to reappear. Reappear healthy, happy, and strong.

    Take some comfort in the statistical fact that more and more people are experiencing what you are - loneliness, feeling unworthy, chasing an endless array of bad jobs, inability to strike out on your own. It is closely tied to our current economic system - late stage capitalism. You know, there is a reason why politicians are doing abortion bans and discussing contraception bans right now, it may seem regressive but it is totally logical - young people have stopped procreating. Of course, they stopped because of their inability to get a decent source of income or their own appartment, but in order to salvage that situation, politicians would have to abolish capitalism (which is making them rich), so to avoid hurting their own income and in order to try to supply their children and grandchildren with empoverished workers who they will live off exploiting, they make abortion and contraception illegal, regardless of the actual human cost. In reality, however, people aren't having abortions left and right - they stopped having sex altogether because they don't have the self-respect, time or energy to have it. So, jokes on the politicians, I guess. Also, humanity will die out in several generations, while waiting on "the invisible hand of the market" to fix their problem - unfortunately, the problem is "relying on the market".

    Ah, so we have learned to avoid feeling loneliness, and the way people tend to do it is by weakening their bond, such that its breakage (transient or permanent) is less damaging. It's a stable life when people enter and leave without much excitement either way, but it is less fun overall. It's cool to be chill, but all chill no fun makes Jack a sad boy.

    I’ve been traveling the world for the last two years and, interestingly, I don’t miss anyone! I think of people and then I send them a message and feel reconnected. Maybe that’s what it is, I act on a feeling of missing and so it doesn’t last. I’m divorced, no children. The biggest thing I missed was volunteering at a food kitchen and delivering meals to unhoused folk. I missed that for a whopping six months.

    Well, then there's the people who garnered your care and affection only to suddenly treat you as though you are arbitrary. There's validity in the apprehension and fear some come to feel towards opening up and allowing themselves to be vulnerable. Some people really take advantage of it only to take it for granted and there's not really anything that can be done about it, it's this inconvenient pain you could have been without, so pointless and futile.

I took a note of that to remember for later because it didn’t seem right. And here we are, 17 years later, trying to heal from childhood adversity. Thank you for these videos, they help break down big topics with complex emotions into smaller, manageable chunks.

I don't blame him though! He was a gentleman (if not, at least he acted like one) I miss him so so badly even today. He was the _FIRST LOVE_ of my life. I still do adore him, but I don't want him back now. I don't want all those mental agonies back in my life now

    The less people you know and interact with, the less people you will miss. Solitude is the answer. Depending on someone else for some kind of emotional support is just not going to happen. Learn how to turn affection on and off like a light switch. I ghosted my mother 4 years ago and I'd do the same to anyone. Relationships are really not as important as people think they are. Change your perspective.

    This is absolutely true. That said I do not think children are born with this skill. It happens when caregivers communicate to children that their emotions are unacceptable. This can be done via anger, neglect, shame, and abuse or a simple lack of love. The fact that a child who is 2 or 3 years old can already possess the skills to repress emotions speaks to how incredibly early children can place their caregivers needs above there own.
