Thank you for helping me and many others like me who live in a third world country where mental health always takes a back seat and prioritising one’s own true self is considered “act against the societal norms“.

Thanks, Maika for sharing your thoughts and insights on vulnerability. It's great to hear new perspectives and analogies. I remember the first time I heard about this Psychological phenomenon was during college in September 2022. I was then re-introduced to the concept in April 2023 when someone emailed me Brene's ted-talk. Since then I've thought about the prospect frequently, However, one key moment that made me feel the meaning of it up close was just this past August when I was telling family that I felt so confused to why I couldn't get myself to do anything. It was a brief and powerful moment where I said "I just need to let people help me" and "I need to put down the desire to impress people". It was a huge bummer, but throughout the conversation, it turned into hope and it felt great that I could graciously make mistakes and be okay. The biggest thing that's changed for me since then is my willingness to be honest about things I used to heavily conceal. And in general, vulnerability is helping me stay curious and not worry so much about work.

I am grateful for your channel. I wish I had found it sooner. I am already at the start of my divorce after 27 years. But it can still be applied going forward. If you ever wonder if your channel is effective, please know that it is.

I am very hesitant to comment about this, but seeing as I am a random person on the internet, might as well! You are absolutely beautiful. I am here for the support of course, but every time I can't help but gush. Thank you for everything you do and I apologize if this is a shallow comment.

The last time I tried to be vulnerable with my wife, she used that against me and saw it as a weakness.we ended upbeen divorced. Since then, my heart has been shut off for anyone.

At first, it was ok. Felt like the connection between us was being reinforced. But as time went on, she definitely came to lose respect and it went downhill from there and even said so herself as part of the disrespect she would show. I eventually ended the relationship. Respect did not fully return nor would it going forward. So, I’m with the OP. It’s best to not show it to your woman. I will go forward in life with that in mind. No more vulnerable moments in front of my significant other.

This is sad. I’m sorry about your experiences-both the commenter and OP. Please have faith that those who are aligned with you will provide capacity for you to be vulnerable.

I'm so sorry this happened to you. That's a terrible thing for your wife to do. It seems this is a common experience for men who try to be more vulnerable and so healthier. I don't know if you read much (or like audio books), but I think you might find "The Will to Change" by bell hooks very validating of your experience, and maybe helpful.

@@Teleruu I doubt I will change my stance on showing vulnerability. My ex taught me very well that it makes me look weak. She even had the therapist agreeing with her that I shouldn’t have shown sadness in that particular instance. I normally don’t show emotion so it was definitely out of the norm. If I want to keep the respect from my girl, I can’t show that. I’ve put that book on my list. I appreciate it!

Nothing worst when you are sick and being ignored. Being sick you are vulnerable.

i ignored this last night when i saw it this is a word i do not like i have never heard a +ve version of it and i couldn't pretend to have one. i have have had too many setbacks this week so i am not in the mood to watch this. becase i am aware of it i am defensive together with all the memoreies from the dead yesterdays then i had a light bulb moment on the 30/11 when i saw yourtube on ADHD and with avoidance together with maybe schizoid and insecure attachment or autism it is like i am in quick sand. i think i need a 90 day rest i am going to order some clay tomorrow

Admitting you are weak and people take advantage of it. The problem is people use you to make you feel worst to boost their fragile ego like a power play.

And that relates to the quality of advice how? Assuming "cute" equals attractive. Would you take advice from Ted Bundy?
