Susie: 我感觉非常疲惫，因为我的丈夫变得越来越消极。无论我说什么，他总能找到抱怨的点。例如，我说天气很好，他会说太热而且有风。我说朋友很棒，他也会挑剔。我真的不知道该如何应对这种情况，这种持续的负面情绪让我感到沮丧。 Dr. Laura: 我建议你使用一种策略：首先承认他的负面观点，然后用你自己的积极观点来结束对话。例如，如果他说天气不好，你就说“是的，你说得对，天气是有点热和刮风，但总的来说，阳光明媚，感觉还是不错的”。或者，当他说朋友的缺点时，你可以说“是的，她确实有这些缺点，但她心地善良”。这种方法既承认了他的感受，又表达了你的积极态度，可以有效地缓解你的情绪，甚至让他感到困惑，从而改变他的行为模式。记住，困惑有时也是一种强大的工具。
