dae realise that they take things so personally.
One of the first things my latest a we favorite therapist gave me was a copy of "the 4 agreements."
The 4 agreements:
Be impeccable with your word.
Don't take anything personally. With PTSD we can have a lot of trouble with this one because so many things may have been done to harm us on purpose, but for the general population, day to day things, it's likely stupidity instead of malice. Abusers like to throw this one in your face too to gaslight you, so there's a line. Work on your radar and trust it.
Don't make assumptions. Kinda goes with number 2.
Always do your best. Your best will change from day to day based on circumstances.
