4 Key To Managing Stress In Householding Life

JAKARTA - After marriage, every couple will be faced with complex problems, whether they are related to each other's families or with each other. Well, to overcome all problems that occur in the household and keep marriage strong, here are some tips on managing stress in the household, launching Psychology Today, Wednesday, January 4.

Stress causes changes in a person's emotional state. Which can affect his ability to communicate the desire and important preferences to be heard clearly by a partner. When a partner experiences severe stress, they may withdraw emotionally and become less effective in sending the right signal to their partner for understanding.

Therefore, establish the best possible communication when you and your partner start experiencing the initial characteristics of stress. Discuss things that interfere with thoughts and feelings, then find a solution together.

Stress can lead to a decrease in intimacy between partners. When people are under psychological stress, they have less time and energy sharing intimate moments with their partners. And choose to focus more on their own stress and worries.

For this reason, try to manage stress well and support your partner when at the lowest point in order to maintain healthy and positive interactions with each other. If stress can be managed, then the communication and intimacy of you and your partner can be maintained.

Stress can make a person forget the importance of mutual respect between partners. By continuing to instill that attitude, you and your partner will be able to overcome everything that happens to your marriage.

Some marriages have to be broken down because each partner can only blame each other. Instead of blaming each other, you and your partner should get closer to each other to work things out in your marriage.
