Episode notes
We're told staying is loyalty. So we hold on, hoping things will improve.
Tell ourselves "it's not that bad." But after my full conversation with Dr. Amir Levine, I've been reflecting on something deeper…
Insecure relationships age you nine months per person, on a cellular level. That's not theory. That's your body keeping score.
Maybe discomfort isn't the cost of commitment. Maybe it's a warning.
Maybe asking for what you need isn't weakness. Maybe it's the only thing that saves you.
If leaving scares you… ask whose voice is telling you to stay.
