Sometimes when we don’t really know what to do, the best thing is to do nothing. Just take a little more time to weigh up your options, think about the pros and cons for each one, consider a plan. Perhaps try the A-E Problem Solving approach.
A – Acknowledge. Acknowledge there is a problem and you want to do something about it.
B – Brainstorm. Brainstorm your ideas of what you can do, options that are possible, available, you’d like to do, that may work. Write them all down.
C – Choose. Choose one of your options that seems the most likely to be a solution.
D – Do It. Don’t hesitate any more, do it.
E – Evaluate. If the option you have chosen doesn’t work for some reason, go back to C and try something else.It’s all in your own time, at your own pace, when you are ready and not a moment before.

Loving these options laid out like this, it makes so much sense! I spent a lot of time on A…the rest went so quickly, my head is still spinning.Alittlelost, also consider what makes you feel safe? Do you feel safe telling him what you think? Do you receive the space to do so? Does he respect your opinions without repercussions? You deserve to be able to talk freely, move freely and take decisions for your life without him deciding for you.
Do you have any support?
Remember to keep breathing in deeply in and out 💕 -
Alittlelost, it’s a few hours later…and I see you have some very good replies. All, great support and advice to help you I hope. Freedomfries01, WantsToHelp and HopeLifeJoy, so helpful! I too love the A-E approach of decision making, it does make so much sense doesn’t it. Especially when life feels complicated, because it isn’t easy at times is it💞
