Emotionally immature people often interpret reality based on how something feels to them, not what was actually said or meant.

In the April 21st episode of Being Well, I am joined by Dr. Lindsay Gibson, who explains how emotional immaturity distorts communication and how to stay grounded in your own clarity when it happens. Watch the episode here: youtube.com/watch?v=7AoDg88GVkc

Dr. Lindsay Gibson is a clinical psychologist and the author of the Emotional Immaturity series of books, including her bestseller Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents.
