Strained Relationships Aren’t Broken Until You Decide

Top Santa Clarita Chiropractor and Stress Expert Explains How to Turn Relationship Stress into Relationship Strengths

By Dr. Thomas Polucki

The divorce rate has doubled in the past 20 years, and relationship stress is often a big factor. But strained relationships aren’t broken until you decide they are.

By reducing the stress in your relationship, you can grow and maybe even help your partner grow, too.

There are more stresses that can strain relationships now than ever before.

Many people blame outside forces like social media, Internet porn, the economy, loss of faith in religion, media conspiracy, government shenanigans, or some combination of those.

But these potential stress-creators are for the most part beyond our control, and can only hurt us if we allow them to.

The strength of any relationship will be challenged. Whether that challenge strengthens or weakens the relationship depends more on who we are and how we handle it than what is actually done to us.

Blaming circumstances or your partner takes away your power. You are not a victim.

Understanding, respecting, supporting and finding agreement with your partner gives you power, and reduces stress in strained relationships.

Secret Decoder Ring for Strained Relationships

Sometimes women and men communicate differently. Not necessarily better or worse, just differently. But good communication is the key to any successful relationship.

For instance, when a woman asks for help, she just might want to talk through a challenge, and doesn’t necessarily want a man to fix anything.

Everything in many women’s background fostered communication, sharing and nurturing, so when she asks for help she just may need to hear herself answer her own questions.

Men want to fix stuff and can be offended if their most obvious answer is not accepted.

So, men: Don’t try to fix it right away. Listen to her and support her process.

On the other hand, when a man asks for help, he needs that specific help desperately. Everything in most men’s background fostered competition, individual achievement and stoic bravery in the face of devastating consequences.

So when he asks for help, he is breaking all the rules and being vulnerable.

This is a sign of unparalleled trust. Assuming that his cry for help is just banter will shake that trust.

So, women: Don’t try to fix him. But when he asks for help, he really needs it.

Understanding the subtle differences in the way your partner hears things and the way you hear things can strengthen most strained relationships.

What you choose to focus on in any relationship changes that relationship.

Are you focusing on how grateful you are that you found someone uniquely designed to help you break through your worst nightmares, and achieve your wildest dreams?

Health issues can cause a strained relationship, and relationship stress can cause further illness.
