Valid: Having sex is really important to me and a partner not wanting sex is a deal-breaker, so I would end a relationship with someone who doesn't want to have sex.

Not valid: Having sex is really important to me and a partner not wanting sex is a deal-breaker, so if a person I'm dating doesn't want to have sex they have to do it anyway for my sake.

I hate the way therapy speak is used against actually mentally ill people

You're allowed to grieve the life your mental disorder stole from you.

While I've been editing, I've begun adding optional activities to the chapters. I thought that these might be good to share! If there's interest, I can definitely share the rest.

Optional Activity: The Relationship I Want to Build

Take a few minutes to think about the kind of relationship you want to create.

Complete the following sentences:

I want a relationship where...

I want both people to feel free to...

I want connection to look like...

I want independence to look like...

I want disagreements to be handled by...

I want both people to feel safe enough to...

I want trust to look like...

When you're finished, read through your answers.

Many of us spend so much time trying to avoid abandonment, conflict, or rejection that we rarely stop and ask ourselves what we're actually moving toward.

Healthy relationships aren't built by eliminating all distance, disagreement, or independence. They're built by creating enough trust and security for two people to remain connected while still being individuals.

If you'd like, save your answers somewhere you can revisit them later. On difficult days, this can serve as a reminder of the kind of relationship you're trying to build, rather than the fears you're trying to avoid.

Yes, this is from my book, but I think overall it can be helpful so I'm sharing it to my bigger audience here!
