Almost everyone knows what jealousy is: Fear, anger and disappointment are combined in a single strong feeling difficult to control and handle.
But, for many people, jealousy is a nightmare they can not leave behind: they constantly check text messages, calls, emails, clothes, drawers and even the bank accounts of their partners.
For the celotípicos, jealousy is more than a temporary emotional crisis: they are a disease that ruins not only their relationship but the well-being and quality of life of each of its members.
I invite you to read the following article to know more about the celotipia or sickly jealousy.
What is celotipia?
The celotipia results when the jealousy that is felt towards the couple becomes an obsession that completely destroys the well-being of the individual who suffers it, that of his partner and that of his family and social environment. Thus, the celotypical person can not remain in peace and harmony with their partner for a long time, because all their acts and actions are dominated by jealousy and insecurity they feel.
The symptoms of a person being celotypic are:
Anxiety and constant concern for the couple and their actions.
Paranoid and violent attitudes with the couple.
Isolation of the family and social group.
Need to be with the couple all the time
Constant suspicion of being a victim of a love deception.
Constant feelings of abandonment.
Low self-esteem and feelings of insecurity.
How to treat celotipia?
When a person has been diagnosed as celotypic, the help of a mental health professional becomes indispensable, since the consequences of this disease can be very negative for the couple (even reaching physical and psychological violence).
Through psychotherapy, the person can bring to light the deepest origins of his jealous and possessive attitude and perform, with the help of the doctor, small actions to contribute to conjugal stability. Also, it is the duty of the other to contribute to the improvement of the couple's relationship, by going punctually to appointments and treating each other as the specialist suggests.
Controlling jealousy is not an impossible task, but everyone must do their part to improve the relationship little by little. Guilt and rejection do not solve the problem.
Good emotional health and communication as a couple are the fundamental bases to clear a panorama devastated by jealousy. Together they can move forward, dedicating time and love to build a new path.
