How to Accept What You Cannot Control?

Sometimes we find ourselves in situations where we really want to change something, but unfortunately, it is beyond our power. Feelings of helplessness and confusion arise. We blame ourselves for “not coping” or for “not being strong enough”.

“How can I accept what I cannot influence?” — a subscriber asks for advice from our expert in the “Ask a Psychologist” section. This message itself is already a step toward self-care, allowing oneself to experience emotions and seek support when circumstances are beyond our control.

In a new video, our psychologist Yana Kobets answers this question and offers practical advice to help cope with feelings of helplessness and gradually learn to accept what we cannot control.
