LG - we are not here to fix others. We R not responsible for how others react to what we do/not, say/not. R U safe?
I'm a 'rescuer'
as well as being reactive and compulsive. Hard to live with
Sometimes we over think the why's/where4s.
CBT is supposedly to teach the client how to rethink the thought processes. This should then avoid the knock on anxiety effect. It needs practice so that we can initiate it immediately any negative thoughts begin. However.
It mayB worthwhile you considering relationship counselling to get a handle on how a professional might help U 2 move forwards.
As a rescuer in recent years I've offered up advice based on my experiences, if people don't take it that's fine. I do however then put foot down with firm hand: U R a big Girl/Boy now and I've pointed U to X, Y, Z so U can take those routes if appropriate.
I've had the 'you don't care if you won't listen' scenario too. Again, a gentle 'pointed U 2 ........ ' at which point Mum said OH I can't do that Dear. Eventually we learned that it was 'won't do'!
