Even if you have a strong desire to support a loved one in a difficult situation, you can make a mistake and receive only irritation in response. In a conversation we had with RIAMO about this issue reported social psychologist Maya Linde. According to him, one should not resort to criticism, discussion, searching for the guilty, or raising one’s voice. All this will only alienate the person and cause distrust.

“If he responds to your complicity with anger, aggression, or tells you directly that he is not ready to discuss this with someone, you should no longer approach that person,” Linde said.

He stated that in such cases the person should be left alone and that he is willing to provide support if necessary. In acute or long-term cases, the specialist recommends resolving emotional states with the help of a psychologist.

Psychotherapist, psychiatrist-narcologist, chief physician of the AlkoSpas clinic Alexander Polikarpov previously saidHow to deal with increased anxiety. According to him, you need to learn to perceive the words and actions of others differently, do yoga and sports. He also advised me to see a psychologist.
