Losing yourself?

Ever feel like you are losing yourself? That you don't know who you are anymore because the person you are with is not supportive of you? Here are some tactics as to how not to allow your significant other to talk into making nothing of your concerns.

Remind yourself every time that he says that that this is something that you need to do. You need to face this or you will go back into more pain then you were before. It is the pain that motivates. If you remind yourself that it was more painful before you became more aware of your problems and that you need to deal with them then you will not allow him to make nothing of it. You only need to do this in your mind at first. In other words he says, "Oh its nothing." You say to yourself, "But it is something that I need to deal with."and say nothing to him at first. Eventually you will get strong enough to do it verbally with him. Also, find yourself a good friend and confidant. One that will support you and help you to sort through your feelings.
