I just read a very insightful article written by a psychologist who attended a family therapy workshop and shared his thoughts. He said that all the mental health professionals were asked to explore their past relationships with their families. Practically everybody who participated ended up crying. So he says that if mental health workers, whose job it is to treat people with emotional pain, were crying so severely, “how true it must be that just about everyone has some unresolved hurt or resentment left over from relationships with family members.” He then goes into why he thinks this is so. Really interesting.
