The other day, my brother and mom were talking about my period. When I suddenly walked in on them, I felt stressed listening to my mom explain the details. How open should I be with my family about this? I need to think about others' comfort, but it's also important to protect my own privacy.
It happened to me too, my mom is always talking. At one point, she had pressured me like this, and I was tense. But open communication is important, you know.
To the topic owner, do you live in the same house? Or separately?
@yazipsildim actually we live in the same house, it's freaking me out 😅
@makarnaoncesi open communication is important but my mom also needs to cut it out sometimes. Not everything needs to be discussed, right? 😬
If you don’t feel comfortable discussing a sensitive topic, you should express that. Setting your own boundaries is essential for healthy communication.
In this situation, discussing the details within the family environment doesn't seem very logical. After all, privacy is important.
My friend brought candy for his mother because she was on her period. We have to live with it, so it's not something to be exaggerated.
