5 Tips on How to Handle Controlling People 💪

We all know that one person...who constantly disapproves on how you do things and treats you like you are completely incapable? Even if you tried to do things their way, you still can't meet their standards and you also can't change them. If you can relate to this, you are not alone.

Here are a few tips on how to deal with controlling people!

1. Set boundaries and know when to say no. Don't just agree to everything they say because you want to keep the peace.
2. Find out the triggers, patterns, and understand the controller's behaviours so that you can figure out an appropriate response on how to deal with them.
3. If you wish to maintain and improve your relationship with the controller, let them know how their actions and behaviours affect you.
4. Don't start an argument or try to control the controller. Be firm, politely disagree with them, and then leave the conversation.
5. If the controller is causing a lot of stress in your life, keep your distance and spend as little time with them as possible.

I make my boundaries clear, when they cross mine, I cross theirs.

Precisely this, just stand up for yourself as after doing so the first time, you'll see how easy it actually was and how rewarding for your for your personal growth. I made a boss who bullied me at work and before everybody else in the team because I was too kind but I changed myself and him on the same day. I spoke to him privately. Just tell them you don't want to be treated that way firmly. Others started to respect me when I started confronting them on the spot. Ended my anxiety all together after this.

I just had to end a friendship because my ex-friend who was so controlling. I couldn’t take it anymore.

The 5th tip is a bit hard to do so for me because they are my parents but still I have been trying to keep my distance as much as I can. Also, it's hard to stay calm and answer politely to them at many times.
But Thank you for your video. I will try to keep them in my mind.

And last but not least, in case of if controller is your family/parents and for now you got no choice but to live with them, never start any arguments with them and try to talk less to them as much as possible and once you started generating your own income without any waste in time, just kiss their a$$ goodbye and leave.

I am still struggling on how to handle my controlling aunties, like, it is so hard make clear boundaries. I feel like they did so much to me(helped me), yet I feel stressed and restless with them most of time.

Other tips: 1) When saying no, say "no, thank you" and smile calmly. Repeat as many times as necessary until they stop nagging. 2) When getting unsolicited criticism, say "Thank you for your feedback" and ignore them.

Tip number 2 I kind of agree somewhat I'm going to find out what triggers them sometimes you may never know esp if you don't know or don't need to have a relationship with them. They need to get healed what their issues are we not responsible for someone else emotional healing/self-esteem.

Consider the experience with the present controller as a practice opportunity. I don’t remember, when I am in the presence of a controller, to put the tools mentioned in this video in practice. Then I leave and I continue ruminating what I could have said. Remind yourself that it’s going to take practice to get it right. Celebrate you!

Holy cow I should've known this 5 years ago

[gerryjr]

Positive Seed these homeless people steals and they panhandle plus it's hard for me to control them because they are so hard headed and each time I tried to help them out it backfires on me 😒

[sabafirdouse]

I think my cousin brother is controlling me unnecessarily. I think that he does not control anyone but me. I perceive it as discrimination. I don't know what to do?

[hyeilooza]

I can't distance myself to them because they are family but at the same time they're so controlling and judgemental the worse part is they have an authority and they use it to announce infront of people their assumed bad stuff about my life, when the truth is I'm not even close to the person they are assuming that I am, for example they will say I'm lazy who does not care about others then force me to agree with them when in reality I'm struggling with something I don't even know if I can take it anymore and they are making it worse, I can't talk to them about it because many people already tried the same thing but none of them was fixed because of their self-righteous behaviour., now I guess I'll just suffer everyday and let it pass.

[ryanarthur]

I like surprises who in right mind want to control people how boring where’s the fun chaos in that!!!

It gets deeper when they are trying to justify with religion 😢
