What an honor to get to be a part of “Serving Those Who Served” yesterday!! I presented on non-combat trauma among Veterans. I got to meet so many amazing helping professionals in our community who share a heart for Vets. Thank you to Catholic Charities of Fort Worth - NW Campus for the invitation! ❤️🤍💙

It rarely starts with "you can't see your friends."

It starts with guilt.

A sigh when you make plans.
A fight every time you come home from your sister's.
"If you loved me, you'd stay home."
"Your family doesn't like me."
"Why do you need church so much?"

Over time, going out costs more than staying in, so you stay in. The people who would notice something is wrong drift away. The one voice left telling you what's real belongs to the person causing the doubt.

Isolation is often the first step in a pattern that grows. Patterns like this tend to increase in how often they happen and how intense they get. That's why reaching toward safe people early matters.

If your circle has been shrinking, you don't have to name anything yet. Just reach toward one safe person. A text. A coffee. One outside voice can change a lot.

If you’re the partner that tends to want to talk it out right now and gets frustrated…take a look. Your partner needs space to regulate first.

If you’re the partner that needs space, you’re responsibility is to say when you’ll come back back to the conversation. In 20 minutes, after dinner tonight, this weekend etc. Shutdown and leaving the convo without this part creates anxiety and resentment in the relationship.

Stonewalling is one of the 4 horseman that will destroy a relationship. And remember, it’s not just marriages. This works for all relationships.

Some people avoid counseling because they think it means making a big decision. It doesn't.

You can talk with a counselor while you're still sorting out what's happening. Sometimes the first thing that helps is one person who believes you and doesn't rush you.

In session we can help you put words to what you've been experiencing, trust your own memory and feelings again, and think through what feels safe.

One thing worth knowing. If there's a pattern of fear or control in a relationship, couples counseling usually isn't the first step. When safety and trust have been broken, the work starts with each person individually. We'd rather help you get steady first.

If safety is a concern, an advocate at a domestic violence program is the right person to build a safety plan with. We're glad to help you connect with one.

We're a trauma specialized, faith-integrated practice. It starts with a brief 15-minute phone call, and you choose what to share. If someone checks your phone or email, please call from a device that's only yours.

Having power in a relationship isn't wrong. Everyone has some. What matters is how it's used.

"Power with" looks like shared voice and mutual respect.

"Power under" looks like helping and lifting the other person up.

"Power over" looks like controlling, overriding, and pushing someone down to keep them in line.

Jesus spoke to this directly. He told his disciples that the rulers of the world lord it over people, and then he said it must not be that way among them. Greatness, he said, looks like serving (Mark 10:42-45).

Here are four questions to ask yourself, privately:
Can I be who God made me to be in this relationship?
Am I free to disagree?
What happens when I say no?
Do I have a real voice in decisions?

If saying no comes with a price, that matters. LITD is here locally to support you. [email protected]

Jeremiah gives us a picture of Rachel weeping for her children in Ramah. The text says she refuses to be comforted, because they are no more.

Read that again. She refuses.

God doesn't correct her. He doesn't tell her to look on the bright side, or that it happened for a reason. The grief is written into scripture and given room.

Later in the same chapter, there are words of hope for her future. But the weeping comes first, and it's left alone.

Anyone who has lost a baby knows the body grieves too. Arms that ache. A nursery that stays quiet. A due date that keeps showing up on the calendar.

If you're still in it, you don't have to hurry. Your grief has room here.

Here's what we wish more people understood.
It's almost never one decision. It's the slow effect of doubt, hope, fear, and real practical barriers all at once.

Many people leave, go back, and leave again. That's common. It's not failure.

If someone you love is still in it, they don't need pressure. They need someone who keeps showing up.

We'll talk about that more next week.

Save this for later. Share it with someone you care about, in a way that's safe for them.
