That space between sending a text or email and waiting for the response for something we deem, or is, important, whether it be a job application, making the first move on bumble or asking someone out on a date, can send us bat shit na-nas.
"OMG, they haven't written back, I shouldn't have sent it!"
The ego's response when we find ourselves waiting anxiously for a response can lead to us questioning ourselves, doubt our worth, and experience heightened insecurities during these moments (hello old wounds resurfacing).
Our human instinct is to seek resolution and regain a sense of comfort, or possibly control, when faced with uncertainty. We apply coping mechanisms to manage the discomfort, from refreshing our inbox obsessively, re-reading our text or email to dissect every word and its meaning, to crafting alternative scenarios in our minds.
Today's episode is a reminder that it is okay to wig out. Even if you'd done all the work in the world and wig out, it's okay. We want to do our best to slow this automated response down by asking ourselves some important questions.
UPCOMING EVENTS
