When couples try to protect each other through crisis

My partner and I both lost our jobs within two months of each other and we keep trying to be strong for each other instead of just admitting we're both scared, which is making us feel more alone than if we were actually alone.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Their impulse to shield each other from pain is preventing them from sharing the burden that could bring them closer.
