Summary: <p><strong>SAVE YOUR SANITY: HELP FOR HANDLING HIJACKALS®</strong></p><p><strong>with Rhoberta Shaler, PhD, The Relationship Help Doctor</strong></p><br><p><strong>12 THINGS PASSIVE-AGGRESSIVE PEOPLE ALWAYS DO, BUT DON'T OFTEN REALIZE. </strong></p><br><p><strong>You want to be seen, know, loved, and valued</strong>. Of course, you do. Yet, you may be afraid to really enter into relationships. One way people think protects them from intimacy is to adopt passive-aggressive behaviors.</p><br><p>You <strong>push people away with passive-aggressive behaviors</strong>, right when you're longing for them to come closer. The good news is that you can change. And, if the passive-aggressive behaviors belong to someone else, you can learn how to recognize what's going on and make some changes. That's what today's podcast is all about.</p><br><p>You know about Hijackals®, those relentlessly difficult, toxic, disturbing--and often dangerous--people we talk about here on Save Your Sanity. Well, <strong>all Hijackals are passive-aggressive</strong>, <strong>but not all passive-aggressive people are Hijackals.</strong> That's good news, because you might have been thinking otherwise.</p><br><p>In today's episode, I'm sharing twelve things--<strong>twelve infuriating things</strong>--that passive-aggressive people do that can drive others crazy. And, unfortunately, can drive them away.</p><br><p>I mentioned my<strong> free </strong><a href="http://www.PassiveAggressiveChecklist.com" target="_blank"><strong>PassiveAggressiveChecklist.com</strong></a><strong> </strong>site, where you can dive deeply into learning more about yourself or that person whose crazy-making behaviors are causing you to wonder if you want to be around them. Understanding what is passive-aggressive, and what is not is the best place to start. The Checklist is in-depth. In fact, it has two parts. When you complete the first and you recognize you need to know more, the <a href="http://www.PassiveAggressiveChecklist.com" target="_blank">checklist</a> generates a second checklist for you to complete. It's a <a href="http://www.PassiveAggressiveChecklist.com" target="_blank">really effective learning tool. </a></p><br><p>Think about these twelve things in today's podcast. <strong>How many are present within you, or within in your relationship with the others. How's that working for you? </strong> Whether that's your partner, ex, mother, father, friend, or co-worker, you want to understand what's really going on.</p><br><p><strong>Notice what you are feeling. Ask yourself these questions after you listen:</strong></p><p><br></p><ul> <li>Do I ever behave in any of these ways?</li> <li>How do I currently respond when others behave like this?</li> <li>Is it serving me? Is it serving them?</li> <li>Am I completely kind and honest in my communications?</li> <li>Do I tell the truth--again kindly and honestly--when asked for my opinion, or whether or not I'll do something?</li> <li>Do I drag my feet once I've agreed to do something? Does someone I care about?</li> <li>How can I release my own passive-aggressive tendencies?</li> </ul><p><br></p><p>Start with yourself. Then, <strong>learn to manage passive-aggressive behaviors and relationships</strong>.
