'This book made me stop and look at the ways I've tried to keep myself safe that are no longer serving me. Kati doesn't shame us for our coping - she helps us understand it' JONATHAN VAN NESS
Many of us have been told since childhood that we need to keep it together, be less dramatic or toughen up. As we got older, our upsets can be dismissed, labelled as overreactions or even seen as embarrassing. These toxic ideas teach us to stuff our feelings down, ignore our instincts and worry more about how we're perceived than how we actually feel.
For licensed marriage and family therapist Kati Morton, it wasn't until she was on the verge of burnout that she recognized the pattern. Like so many of us, Kati was trapped in an endless cycle of trying to control everything around her. The to-do lists, emotions, relationships-the very things we are trained to keep under control-become the things that harm our relationships, our well-being and ultimately, ourselves.
Why Do I Keep Doing This? is a vital toolkit that will unpack why we do this to ourselves, where it comes from, and most importantly, how to finally let go in a way that doesn't feel like free-falling. This is your guide to understanding how control is at the root of our people-pleasing tendencies and how to finally break the cycle.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Many of us were told to stuff our feelings down when we were younger. We were taught that our emotional reactions should be controlled so we didn't embarrass or upset our parents. However, if that control oozes over into our adult relationships, it's considered a bad thing. Controlling our friends or romantic partners is seen as toxic. Some sides of control are meant to keep us safe, while others harm connections. So, what are we supposed to do? In Why Do I Keep Doing This? licensed therapist Kati Morton explores this common struggle. She shows how our anxiety is often connected to feeling like we are too much or less deserving of time and care. Difficulties with asserting ourselves, or taking what we require, can harm our development and we sometimes think the only way to feel okay is to please everyone else first. Why Do I Keep Doing This? is a vital tool in helping us understand why control can be so attractive, but if left unmonitored can become detrimental to our lives. We all go through tough times, but we have to notice what behaviours are holding us back and change them.Why Do I Keep Doing This? will shed light on shared struggles as readers follow Kati through key points of growth in her own life, while incorporating what she has learned as a therapist and content creator who knows how to create lasting healthy change. This book will give readers the ability to not only ask themselves why do I keep doing this? but also have the insight to find a real answer.
