Others self-sabotage before they can even enter a relationship because of their poor self-image.

But on your healing journey, remember that not every conflict is your fault.

TikTok creator and therapist @therapyjeffmade a video comparing the difference between self-sabotaging tendencies and a bad relationship.

According to Jeff, “self-sabotaging is caused when you’re overcome with fear.”

One commenter asked the question we all have on our minds, “Can it be both?”

Therapy Jeff responded by simply confirming, “Yep.”

It is also crucial for you and your partner’s sanity that you develop a strong foundation of trust.
