Learned Helplessness, Taught Survival, and Entering Resilience

The Healing Homegirls

Learned Helplessness is taught. Learned helplessness is not what you would think it is, and With learned helplessness and healing comes learned RESILIENCE.

What a reminder it is to know that we can relearn everything we were taught to become our best selves.

What our ancestors didn't have the understanding or language for:

Learned helplessness is a psychological phenomenon that manifests in individuals who are repeatedly exposed to adverse and uncontrollable situations. As a result of this exposure, they begin to feel powerless and believe that their actions have no impact on their circumstances. Even when presented with the opportunity to change their situation, they may not take action, as they have come to believe that their efforts would be futile.

This state of mind can be detrimental to personal growth and development, as it may prevent individuals from taking control of their lives and pursuing their goals.

Is anyone else breaking cycles and healing while being the family's black sheep for making the sense they can't grasp or ignoring the possibility of relearning what we were taught about surviving in the world?
