#26: Coping with COVID-19 [Part 3] Being Skillful in Relationships During Quarantine
2020-04-28
Today, Marielle and Ed discuss skills to help you communicate with other people during a global pandemic where we are all facing new interpersonal challenges.
We are connecting - or not connecting - with each other in very different ways now which can strain relationships.
People living alone may feel isolated.
People living with others may long for time alone. The demands of partners, children, and/or other family members may feel like too much.
Additionally, continual low-grade fear and uncertainty make it hard to be in Wise Mind and to know what you want and need.
The DBT skills of DEAR MAN and GIVE can help. These skills provide structure for asking for what you need, saying no, or having your opinion taken seriously. Marielle and Ed revisit these skills and talk about relationships as a whole during this pandemic.
