I cannot tell you how much I have thought about this and the difficulty of being in a heterosexual relationship today from a sociological perspective 🤓🥴 #mentalhealth #relationships #relationship #therapist #therapy #couplestherapy #couplestherapist #marriage #therapytok #therapytiktok #therapistontiktok #fyp #foryou
There’s really no roadmap for how to navigate a mental health crisis like this as a couple with kids, and it’s taken us a lot of trial and error to find a few things that work. This is how Dave helps me interrupt OCD loops & gently reminds my dissociated system about current day facts to trigger communication & increased awareness between the parts & the Self (IFS—Schwartz). It’s not perfect, and we still miss each other sometimes, but I believe there is hope for autistic couples coping with the CPTSD & dissociation issues so many of us are struggling with. It just takes creativity, empathy, flexibility, & a willingness to throw all expectations out the window. Nbd, right?! 😅😩🤷🏼♀️ #unmaskingautism #actuallyautistic #autisticcouples #neurodivergent #adhd #osdd1b #ocd #cptsd #therapy #therapistsoftiktok #couplestherapy #couplestherapist #pathologicaldemandavoidance #pda #pdaautism
Think encouragement instead of criticism. How does it feel when you are encouraged vs critiqued? Let them know what you appreciate in their effort. Think about how you can positively reinforce their effort, while asking for “tweaks” without criticism. 💙 #couplescommunication #communicatingneeds #couplestherapist #relationshipneeds #couplesconflict
Rolling your eyes and heavily sighing at your partner is a sign of contempt and superiority. Instead, try listening to what they’re saying to find a resolution to the conflict.

Intimacy is vital to sustaining a healthy relationship. It isn't just reserved for the bedroom...it can happen whenever and wherever you're intentional about connecting. Look for windows of opportunity to connect. You and your relationship deserve it.
