Hello, host! I really hope my answer can be of some help to you.
I've read your description and I totally get it. It sounds like you're struggling with feeling loved and cared for by your husband. And it's totally normal! We all need that love and support. I also get you wanting to lose weight, take care of your skin, focus on learning more about yourself, find something you want to do, and improve your ability to earn money. But you can talk about these things after you've made some improvements, right?
It's totally normal to feel a bit moody after having a baby. The hormones are all over the place! It's also totally normal to feel sensitive and emotional. If you're feeling really low, it's a good idea to go to the hospital to see if you're suffering from postpartum depression. If it's more severe, it's important to regulate your hormones and get some emotional support. You'll be feeling better in no time!
It's totally normal for every wife to want her husband's love and care. When we don't have an income and our husband's attitude towards us isn't great, it's only natural to feel frustrated. But you love him, and I truly believe he loves you too. You just need to work on your communication and exchange. When you can have deeper exchanges and more interaction and support on a psychological level, I'm sure your relationship will get better and better. But remember, to feel secure in a relationship, it's important for us to enhance our inner sense of security. As you said, when we constantly develop and grow ourselves and become confident and powerful, we'll be less sensitive and vulnerable in relationships.
So, my advice to you is:
1. If you want to communicate with your husband using the "Nonviolent Communication" method, it's really important to be honest and straightforward in expressing your feelings and needs to the other person.
The purpose of communication is not to prove who is right and who is wrong. It's so much more than that! It's about helping you understand each other better and promoting the development of your relationship. We need to communicate deeply in relationships, express each other's needs and feelings in a timely manner, and establish a deeper emotional connection and emotional exchange.
You can use the method of non-violent communication. It's really quite simple! All you have to do is state the objective facts, express your feelings, express your needs, and request the other person's actions.
It's important to be objective when stating facts, and to avoid being critical or accusatory. It's also really helpful to express your needs and feelings as they truly are. And when you're asking someone else to take action, it's a great idea to be as specific as you can. The more specific you are, the better! That way, the other person knows exactly what you need and how they can help.
For example, when your partner is not by your side and you cannot get in touch with him, you can send him a message saying, "Honey, you said that I... (state the objective facts, but be careful not to accuse him). I feel a little upset, worried, scared, and my heart is in turmoil. I feel so sad. I really care about you and love you very much. I need your understanding, recognition, and support. Can you give me more support and encouragement in the future?"
If you can, try to communicate every day, learn to share, and avoid a cold war. If he's not good at expressing himself, you can express more. Maybe you two just have different ways of expressing yourselves. You can also pay more attention to his other actions. For example, does he hug the baby when you're tired, cook, and help with chores? These aren't verbal expressions of care, but actions that show his care and love.
It's so important to be able to express your feelings and needs, share each other's lives, and let the other person understand your life status and dynamics. When you can do all of that, it can really enhance each other's sense of security and trust!
2. It's okay to take a break from focusing on your husband. Give yourself a little space to relax and enjoy other things in your life.
It's natural to want to focus on the other person and expect changes from them. But, we can't always be with them, and they have their own lives to live. They need time and space, just like we do. And, we can't control what they think.
If we get too attached, the other person may feel a bit trapped and, over time, may want to escape.
It's so important to remember that we can't control other people. The film "A Change of Heart" says there are only three things in the world: your own affairs, other people's affairs, and the affairs of God. It can be really hard not to worry about other people's affairs and the affairs of God when you're struggling with something yourself.
It's so important to remember that the other person's behavior and thoughts are their business, and we cannot control them. What we can do is respect and accept them, while at the same time taking control of our own affairs.
It's so important to remember that the behavior and thoughts of the other person are their business, and we cannot control them. What we can do is respect and accept them, while at the same time taking control of our own affairs.
When negative thoughts arise in your mind, such as "Will my husband be dissatisfied with me? Will he stop loving me? He doesn't care about me," at this time, you might as well turn your attention to other things, such as chatting with friends, going for a walk, reading a book, cuddling your child, doing housework, watching a movie...all of these are good choices.
Because when we're not busy, our minds can wander to all kinds of negative thoughts and ideas. Our brains never stop, they're always working! So, make your life more fulfilling by filling your time with things you enjoy. When you have a moment to yourself, try a new hobby like painting, playing a musical instrument, learning to cook, exercising, writing, or even growing flowers!
When your life is enriched, you can arrange yourself well when you are alone, keep doing the things you like, and enjoy the kind of heartfelt joy and sense of fulfillment. You will become more and more satisfied with yourself, and the negative thoughts in your head will naturally decrease or even disappear.
3. Give yourself a boost! Build up a sense of inner security and self-belief.
It's totally normal to feel insecure in a relationship. We all have our own insecurities, and it's okay to feel that way. But it's also important to recognize that our insecurities might be causing us to doubt our partner's satisfaction with us.
How can you give yourself a confidence boost?
The first step is to accept yourself, sweetheart. Accept your personality and your imperfections. See your shortcomings and inadequacies, but also your strengths and value.
The first step to becoming more and more confident is to accept yourself, my friend.
It's totally normal to find it tough to accept yourself, but you've got this! When that inner voice of self-doubt pops up, just keep practising. You've got so much going for you, and you're not perfect, but you're pretty great! You can use your strengths to live your best life, and that's something to be proud of.
When you accept yourself, you can live with your shortcomings, and your heart will become more and more relaxed and powerful.
You know, many people are just like you. They're imperfect, but they're doing their best. And you can do the same! All you have to do is accept yourself, your imperfections, and live a comfortable life.
Secondly, it's important to recognize your own worth and value, and to keep yourself positive with some lovely positive thinking!
I'm here for you!
It's only when we give ourselves a little love and support that we can become more confident, you know?
It's only natural to look for things we lack inside us outside. But the thing is, everything outside is a bit up and down and beyond our control. The good news is that we can control ourselves, our actions, and our thoughts.
It's okay to need external recognition sometimes. It just shows that we don't approve of ourselves enough. That's why it's so important to practice approving of ourselves and encouraging ourselves. When we approve of and support ourselves enough, we won't care so much about the approval and evaluation of others.
And when you accept and approve of yourself, it'll be like magic! Others will also increasingly approve of you and believe in you, because you'll exude your own charm and confidence.
So, you are the source of everything! Change yourself, and you'll change your world!
And don't forget to keep on improving your abilities and knowledge!
You know, confidence really does come from strength and hard work. And when we become the person we recognize in ourselves, we'll feel more and more confident and secure.
You can set yourself a suitable goal and then achieve these goals one step at a time. By constantly achieving your goals, your abilities will gradually improve, your knowledge will continue to accumulate, and your experience will become richer and richer. You will feel more and more secure, have a greater sense of control over your life, and naturally become more and more confident.
A suitable goal is one that's just right for you. It's not too easy, but it's not too hard either. If it's too easy, you'll get bored and lose motivation. If it's too hard, you'll get discouraged and lose confidence. A moderately challenging goal is the perfect balance. When you work hard to achieve it, you'll feel a sense of accomplishment and self-confidence.
So, for example, if you're currently walking 4,000 steps a day, why not aim for 4,500-5,000 instead of less than 4,000 or as high as 10,000?
When you set goals that are right for you, it's so important to stick with them. Only through action can you overcome difficulties and truly experience your own value. You've got this!
Keep up the great work! You're doing so well. Just keep encouraging yourself and telling yourself those positive things. You can do it!
Keep encouraging yourself, keep giving yourself positive mental suggestions, and believe that you can, and you really can!
It's also important to remember that you shouldn't worry too much about what others think. We can't control how other people judge us, so there's no need to fret about it. You're great just the way you are! Focus on doing your own thing, controlling your own actions and thoughts, and constantly breaking through and growing yourself. You'll succeed!
It's also important to remember that you shouldn't worry too much about what others think. We can't control how others judge us, so there's no need to fret about it. Instead, focus on doing your own thing, controlling your own actions and thoughts, and constantly pushing yourself to grow. You'll be amazed at how your confidence and self-esteem will flourish!
4. It's so important to give our emotions some outlet. Don't suppress them, don't ignore them, but channel and release them in a timely manner.
It's so important to let our emotions out, rather than trying to hide them away. If we try to repress our feelings, they'll just bubble up and come out in other ways, like anger or sadness. So, it's better to accept our emotions and find ways to let them out in a healthy way.
Let's say you're feeling a little aggrieved and sad. You can talk to your husband about it using the non-violent communication method we talked about earlier. You might not get a positive response, but it's still important to express your feelings. It'll help you feel more relaxed. You can also write about your emotions. Writing can be a great way to express yourself. You can also talk to someone close to you about your troubles and grievances. Mothers can be a great source of support because they understand your feelings. They've been through similar experiences. You'll feel understood and supported. We're all in this together, so you'll also feel a sense of belonging and your mood will relax a little.
We all get angry from time to time. It's okay! When you feel that anger building up, you can either go for a run or do some aerobics to release it. Or, you can try the empty chair technique. It's simple. Just place an empty chair in a safe space and assume that the person who makes you angry is sitting in it. Then, you can say whatever you want to say to them, whether it's constructive criticism or something more. This can be a great way to release that anger.
When you're feeling insecure and down, why not go for a lovely stroll in nature? Take in the beauty of the flowers and plants, the vast blue sky and fluffy white clouds, the majestic mountains and tranquil rivers. Let the magical power of nature lift your spirits! You could also read some inspiring books and practise self-acceptance and approval. Two great reads are "Rebuilding Your Life" and "Accepting Your Imperfect Self." They'll help you find your inner strength!
When you're feeling really nervous or scared, it can help to do some relaxation exercises, like breathing exercises or muscle relaxation exercises. You can also try developing the habit of meditating every day. This can help you to feel more peaceful and relaxed.
In a nutshell, when we let go of our emotions, we'll find a more balanced and peaceful inner self. This will lead to a whole new outlook on life, and we'll be more productive and efficient in everything we do!
I hope this is helpful for you! Wishing you all the best!
