Can we learn to complain better?
Everyone complains. It is a totally normal and natural thing to do. Complaining has two functions. The first is as a tool for building relationships with others. When we complain, we are sharing our feelings and letting people know what we like and don’t like. This has the power to help people form relationships, and nothing unites us like a common enemy. When we complain, the people we talk to might provide solutions to our problems, which can help make the relationships we have with others stronger.
The second use of complaining is as a way to process emotions. It can be difficult to name our feelings and understand where they come from. When we complain, we have the chance to talk through our negative emotions. It can be very helpful to give words to whatever pain we are experiencing so that we might feel better.
Many people say that we should always think positively. However, sometimes the truly healthy thing to do is to recognize that something bad is happening, say it plainly, and then move forward.
