Why Do I Shut Down Emotionally When My Partner Yells at Me?

Описание: Have you ever wondered why you seem to emotionally shut down when your partner raises their voice or hurls accusations your way? It's a common reaction to a distressing situation. When you find yourself repeatedly subjected to your partner's yelling or criticism, it creates an overwhelming emotional burden.

In such moments, your body goes into overdrive, experiencing feelings of anxiety, fear, and being utterly overwhelmed. These sensations trigger a natural biological response – fight, flight, or freeze – as your mind and body attempt to protect themselves.

Shutting down is your body's way of choosing the freeze response. In this state, your ability to think clearly and recall information significantly diminishes. It can feel like a form of dissociation, withdrawal, or disconnection from the situation. You might find it challenging to express yourself or feel as though you're trapped in the moment.

If you're finding it difficult to communicate with your partner during these moments, remember that you don't have to face it alone. Seeking the assistance of a licensed counselor can provide you with valuable insights into your partner's behavior, help you understand why you tend to shut down emotionally, and offer much-needed emotional support and guidance for navigating this challenging situation.

In this short video, we'll explore the reasons behind this emotional response and provide you with some practical steps to consider. Understanding the dynamics at play and seeking professional help can be the first steps towards healing and healthier communication in your relationship. 💔🗣️ #RelationshipAdvice #EmotionalResponse #Counseling #HealingJourney
