I am always engrossed in whatever negative has happened with me in the past and always connect with whatever happens with me in the present. I sometimes find myself in a state where I don't feel like talking to anyone. I have developed short temperament specially towards my husband where I don't feel like seeing his face even at some instances maybe without any reason.

Hello! Thank you for reaching out.
We can understand how this might be very distressing to you.
As we go about our lives, we physically exist in the present- however, our mind has the capability to be in the past, present or future and think of multiple aspects of it. This is something that is adaptive, because it allows us to learn and recall from the past, and anticipate the future. However, this is all done so that we can live a better present.
It can then be very tempting to focus on the past or future, than live in the present. It is true that we take lessons and learnings from our past, however as you mention- there is a likely tendency to focus more on the negatives. It is common that we forget about the positives that happen with us in the past and we stick with the negatives much more. This can make us feel that everyone has betrayed or deceived us at one point of time or the other, or someone new might do the same because of a previous experience.
Developing a present-centric approach can be useful in this scenario. Staying in the present allows you to take the situation as it comes and not judge it based on past or future events. Grounding exercises are excellent means of being in the present. Asking yourself questions like, âHow do I feel about this at the moment?â, âWhat is happening in this situation right now?â can be helpful. This will allow you to see the situation as it is and not in the lens of the past.
Additionally, you mentioned that you find yourself in situations where you feel like you donât wish to talk. It is perfectly okay to feel that way. In such moments, it can be helpful to communicate in a polite way to the other person, so that they know that you wish to deal with something by yourself. âI donât feel like talking right now. I will figure out why I feel this way by myself and I appreciate you giving me this space.â This will provide a healthy boundary as well as not make your partner feel like they have done something to upset you. Communicating clearly and introspection could provide you with a lot more ease.
We would highly recommend you to approach a professional counsellor/mental health practitioner who would be able to guide you through in a safe and non-judgemental manner. It is perfectly okay to seek out professional help from mental health practitioners from organisations or independent set ups.

Hello human. Thank you for sharing your problem with us. I appreciate your decision to seek help.
It seems like you may not have fully healed from your past experiences. It is possible that they are re-surfacing now and causing negative emotions. The pandemic and subsequent lockdown too could have inadvertently contributed to your situation.
I would recommend you to begin by taking care of your physical health. Ensure you have a healthy diet, get enough sleep and exercise. Practicing mindfulness techniques like yoga and meditation may help you connect with your inner self. For issues with a short temper, try breathing exercises.
Next Steps
Most of all, I suggest seeing a counselling psychologist at the earliest. They would provide you with a safe space to discuss your problems and help you figure out viable solutions. Their advice would be specific to you. You may book a session with me when you feel ready.
Yes, it happens. But don't always these behaviours casually. Whatever you arr experiencing there must be a reason behind. Don't worry together with Psychotherapy we can resolve your inner conflicts.
