This segment really hits home! One thing I see in myself, even as an older adult, is how I'm in awe of confident people.

@gretchenv4647 Год назад

I am in awe of confident people as well 👍 Discovered along the way of life that it all starts with our “inward thinking” what are we thinking about ourselves 🤔 It’s important to focus in on anything positive we can see or think of, which can help bring us to a point of showing confidence as well….. important to truly believe that You Are Loved, and that happiness starts with making “choices” to become joy-filled :-)

This issue with codependency is the subconscious mind. That’s why I create programs that include healing theta brainwave meditations, deep journaling exercises, and repeatable action steps people rely on to break those patterns. It’s repetition, consistency, a roadmap, and support that help you breakthrough!

@lisaaromano1 Год назад

Codependency exists at the subconscious level. The moment you are not actively breaking a faulty belief pattern the old thinking and behaviors come right back. This is the default mode network in operation. That’s why I created my online program with theta brainwave guided meditations. It also included deep journaling prompts, a roadmap, and practical day to day tools, systems and modalities you can use while breaking these subconscious patterns. www.lisaaromano.com/12-wbcp

@bridgettetraveler658 4 месяца назад

I used to help others to take my mind off of my problems. Both of my parents were narcissistic. I didn't care what they thought of me. I just did everything I could to survive. I'm happy in my life now because I gave my life to JESUS CHRIST & he gave me his joy & peace. Most times when ppl try to pull me out of my peace I give them a laugh & smile to let them know they're not bothering, but making me laugh. My parents were mean & abusive in I did everything not to upset them. I couldn't wait until the day I was out of there. After I left I went very little contact with my whole family & feel so free. There's nothing like having freedom to be yourself! Yeah!!!

Will you please address grandparent alienation? It seems that those of us who had abusive parents, but tried to do better for our children and ended up being hyper vigilant and having few boundaries are more likely to be cut off… resulting in extreme pain and loss at both ends of our lives.

@lisaaromano1 Год назад

You are so right. Abused adult children can also become too passive with their children. This trickles down into grandchildren relationships with children that may not respect you. Very painful indeed!

@lilydot5390 Год назад

Wow I had recreated what I was repeatedly without knowing why. I finally learned this year to value myself, create my own happiness and repell the arguments against me. I have set boundaries that my husband thought were harmful to him and selfish, so we separated in April. I have more friends than ever before, because I am free to be my genuine self. I rid myself of unhealthy polarized thinking that things were either good or bad, and I learned that good and bad things happen every day. I learned that I am strong and independence suits me. I learned it's okay to be completely honest with my therapist and working through a past lifetime of insecurity, helplessness and seeking someone else to fix my situation. I finally saw the hole in my wall and it was enormous. Now I can kindly say no, set boundaries and enjoy living my life.

@elle_aye112 Год назад

I've made great strides with my codependency in part because of your videos, but have slipped back into a weird void and am not sure how to get back out. I think I'm looking for a happy ending regarding the situation I had beenin. I miss my friend who is no longer in my life. I hate that he's out there so content to forget that existed, and I'm here, wishing he would just have a moment and think of me. I think it's just my brain that misses how safe and seen that I felt when we were in each other's lives. I need to start practicing what I learned before and try again because I'm sinking back into sadness and feeling stuck. It's a journey and I've got to keep moving. Thank you for this video.

@sunflower6434 Год назад

I definitely understand what co-dependency is REALLY all about now….thank you Lisa, something about hearing you talk about it (from a real life experience) and describing it, makes it so much more understandable (for me) and REAL, than reading about it from a book… And knowing the terminology better, NOW, I can go back to the books and absorb them better.

@rebeccashaw9356 Год назад

I recently discovered your videos after struggling with a massive fear of abandonment. And I’m really grateful to have found your videos because they are helping me understand more as to what is going on inside me and why I keep repeating the same behaviours in friendships/relationships, and why I always tend to run away/over compensating for others. It became apparent through getting sober, I had no idea that I suffered with these things so I’ve been going through my adult life unaware of any of these things and struggling to regulate my emotions, and not understanding my feelings and where they came from. I’m glad I am aware of it today and I guess feel lucky in a sense that today I recognise it and can now start doing something about it and working on myself in those areas that need that attention. I thought everything was okay until recently dating somebody and all this stuff has kinda magnified over the past 3/4 weeks, and I have really struggled to deal with it and open up about it to said person I’m dating whilst trying not to run away but be open about it with them.

Its sad that my codependancy also stems from home life. I used to think too my "independance frm young age"..how i could already be an adult and do my own laundry was a skill and sign of "maturity"..now the reality is i'm so disconnected. All the more constant healing needs to be done. Healing with inner child, shadow work needs to be done. "What are my needs?" Alone is a heavy quest for me. Because i don't think i know..but maybe slowly learning

@Nuverselive Год назад

Ok I have a question. Since we as a high narcissistic society people are exploring codependency in personal relationships I can't help but wonder " Do we become codependent in relationships with our doctors and other medical staff? It seems energetically empaths also attract detached narcissistic healthcare staff. Since many ppl are requiring more healthcare due to the pandemic, and the awareness of trauma in the body which may be causing the disease! My question is " what signs can you look for when choosing a doctor ?" As recovering codependents , how can one stand their ground with a narcissistic doctor? Sometimes due to insurance, network changes and etc , we are stuck dealing with high narcissistic behavior! Are there any phrases that can help , especially for those delaying with chronic illness and pain or depression! Sometimes the dismissiveness is enough to cause anxiety!

@crystalsmith9038 Год назад

Omg ur right. I have a narcissistic doctor and nurse and that’s y I barely want to go.

@lisaaromano1 Год назад

Great question. Find your core, find your essence and speak gently, assertively, and directly. Know your complaint. Speak it out with clarity. State your desire or realistic expectation. Know what is realistic. Once you know what your desire is, remain calm and state it. State your expectation clearly, eloquently. If there is pushback, you may ask, “what motivated you to become a healer?” This question should cause them to pause and self reflect.

This video is really striking so many chords for me. I have cPTSD, from childhood trauma, and was severely neglected as a child.. I'm seeing a therapist, and at times I feel overwhelmed at all the ways in which trauma has affected me. Now I realise I'm a co-dependent! I wondered if you would comment on something for me. I still live under the same roof with my ex-partner. Our relationship never worked out - yes, it was toxic. My ex-partner is on the autism spectrum, but I didn't know that in the beginning - it took a long time for me to work it out. I was horribly confused about her behaviour - distant, emotionally shut down, controlling, anf hyper critical of me. Do you have any experience/knowledge about how autistic people behave in intimate relationships? I often felt like I was going crazy.

@allenallen5040 Год назад

Being aware of all these things is important but it doesn’t change ones desires. Once one experiences the abuse in a relationship, maybe that will cure us? Or will it make it worse?

@lisaaromano1 Год назад

If you’re not aware, unless you change, you’re doomed to stay in the toxic pool which only worsens over time. If you awaken and begin to change your mindset, beliefs, and behaviors, yes you can change but that does not imply your relationship will make it.

@aflack1000 Год назад

Addressing the adoption issue: I think, even with well meaning healthy people doing the adoption, being adopted outside of one's race or country of origin could be problematic. For instance, I have often thought being black or Chinese living in a white family would be hard. Every time they looked in a mirror the knowledge of being different would be apparent. It certainly doesn't mean that all of these types of adoptions don't go well - probably most do, but it would take some very good parenting skills. Thoughts?

The worst think about this issue is that when you try to seek answers, find solutions and enlighten dark fears what is going on in ambient time space of late 1990s and through 2000s, without you tube, you end up with CBT (which means 99% of self help books and official therapy) which actually continues the very same brainwashing - with CBT explaining that we are hallucinating issues, and that we are responsible, guilty and one to blame for feeling mysterious panic attacks and quickly spreading fears, deep toxic shame (feeling inept) and ongoing social anxiety. CBT explains it as delusion and bases "therapy" on self pathology and toxic shaming. CBT takes over the role of alcoholic parent and continues narcissistic abuse, nitpicking and criticizing your basic Self and Personality as something ugly, broken, different, weird, unacceptable and basically wrong by default. Even Mayo clinic in 2022 defines panic attack as imaginary issue, hallucination: "May 4, 2018 - A panic attack is a sudden episode of intense fear that triggers severe physical reactions when there is no real danger or apparent cause." (Panic attacks and panic disorder - Symptoms and causes, mayoclinic official web site)
