As fast as the discussion of women empowerment in society is increasing, the pain, insecurity and mental conflicts within women also remain unseen. Women often specialize in hiding their weaknesses – they smile, are skilled in work, handle relationships, but what is going on inside their mind, no one can know what is going on inside their mind. This article is an attempt to understand this topic deeply – how the weaknesses of women, which they never say to anyone.
1. Learn to recognize emotional fatigue
Often women behave normal by hiding their emotional fatigue. They completely lose themselves between family, children, husband, job, and social obligations. They laugh, smile, but are tired from inside. If a woman is getting irritable without reason, is more calm or is keeping distance from her interests, then it may indicate that she is breaking from within – and she is not sharing it with anyone.
2. See behind the layer of ‘everything is fine’
“I am fine” or “everything is good” – these words are often on women’s tongues, but every time they do not mean true. Many times she says this simply because she does not want her emotional suffering to be a burden on anyone. The silence behind this answer says a lot many times – just a listener.
3. Health is also weakness
Women often do not state their health problems until they become unbearable. Troubles such as menstrual discomfort, back pain, fatigue, headache or even hormonal imbalance they press under the burden of their responsibilities. She thinks that others are needed first, not their own. This mentality has a serious impact on their physical and mental health.
4. “Loneliness” – which does not reflect by words
A very hidden weakness occurs in women – loneliness. This can also happen when they are in the family, in relationships, or in a crowd. If a woman has started talking to herself, has started spending more time on social media or becomes emotional without reason, then it may be an indication that she is feeling emotionally alone. She never discusses this loneliness with anyone – perhaps due to shame, fear or habit.
5. Career and identity upheaval
Many women are in a struggle with their career and self-language, especially those who are limited in the house after marriage or children. They abandon their dreams due to the expectations of society or family, but this sacrifice creates a void within them. She never reveals that she is looking for ‘himself’ – because he feels that it is selfish to think so now.
6. Silence arises due to lack of understanding
Every woman wants someone to understand her without saying it. But when this does not happen again and again, she slowly stops speaking. Communication gap in relationships often starts from here – when she assumes that no one will understand her. This emotional distance gradually causes depression and despair.
7. Lose yourself while playing the role of someone
Mother, sister, wife, daughter or colleague – women make themselves completely in every role. But in this process she forgets “himself”. She does not question themselves what they want, what do they like, what are dreams. This lack of ‘self’ is also a very hidden weakness, which does not recognize from outside.
What can we do?
To understand these hidden weaknesses of women, we need to adopt sensitivity and conscious approach:
Listen, without judge.
Try to understand their “everything well”.
Take time out for them – just sitting together can be enough.
Make them feel that their feelings, desires and dreams also matter.
And most importantly – convince them that feeling weak is not weakness, but humanity.
