Lesson Overview

1.230 – How to Say “I’m Not Okay” Safely: Admitting distress is courage, not weakness, but safety depends on preparation. Identify two trusted contacts and agree on code phrases signaling need without lengthy explanation. When emotion peaks, short messages like “yellow alert” bypass shame and invite support swiftly. Choose timing—daylight, private space—to prevent overwhelm. Speak statements of fact: “I need help regulating,” not self-judgments. This clarity helps others respond effectively. Keep backup options such as helplines or text services stored visibly; choice reinforces security. Practice saying the words aloud when calm so they flow under pressure. Each rehearsal dismantles stigma through repetition. Remember, vulnerability shared with boundaries teaches connection that heals rather than drains. Safety in confession grows from design, not luck. Over time, “I’m not okay” transforms from alarm into bridge—an intentional signal leading you from isolation toward collaborative stability and renewed trust.
