That said, not all TikTok advice is bad.
There is helpful and empowering content out there especially from:
- Therapists, psychologists, and coaches with actual credentials
- Creators who promote communication, empathy, and emotional intelligence
- People sharing lessons learned from mistakes or growth (without telling others how they should behave)
If you’re ever unsure whether something is unhealthy, ask:
- Does this advice help me communicate more clearly and kindly?
- Does it encourage mutual respect?
- Does it align with my values and the kind of relationship I want to build?
Relationships of any kind require effort on both ends, curiosity, the desire to learn about each other and patience.
