There is a popular saying that goes, "whatever you can't face to talk about often controls you." This statement holds a lot of truth, as it highlights the power that unresolved issues can have over our lives. When we avoid discussing or addressing certain topics, we give them the power to dictate our thoughts, actions, and emotions. These unspoken issues can manifest themselves in various ways, such as anxiety, depression, or destructive behavior.


When we refuse to talk about our problems, we are essentially allowing them to fester and grow in the dark corners of our minds. By avoiding these issues, we are preventing ourselves from finding solutions and healing. Instead, we may find ourselves trapped in a vicious cycle of negative thoughts and behaviors, unable to break free from the grip of our unresolved issues.


Furthermore, by avoiding difficult conversations, we also hinder our ability to form genuine connections with others. Authentic relationships are built on trust, honesty, and vulnerability. When we are unable to open up about our fears, insecurities, and struggles, we are creating barriers that prevent us from truly connecting with those around us. This can lead to feelings of isolation and loneliness, further exacerbating the hold that our unaddressed issues have over us.


In order to break free from the control that these unspoken issues have over us, it is important to face them head-on and seek support. Whether it is through therapy, journaling, or talking to a trusted friend or family member, addressing our problems allows us to take back control of our lives. By being honest with ourselves and others, we can begin the process of healing and moving forward in a positive direction. It is only by confronting our fears and insecurities that we can truly break free from the grip of our unresolved issues and live a life of authenticity and purpose.
