Do you have trouble making decisions independently? Do you struggle to identify your own needs and wants? Maybe even your own preferences? Do you seek approval and guidance from all the wrong places or from unhealthy ‘mentor’ figures? And, finally, do you feel personally responsible for the individual feelings of your family members?
If any of this resonates with you, you might have enmeshment wounds that keep you stuck in bad cycles of approval and are not allowing you to live your full potential. Enmeshment trauma is best described as blurred or lack of emotional boundaries with others. We try so hard to please them that we are willing to completely lose ourselves in the pursuit of their wellbeing. This is an impossible ask or to-do!
This dynamic often exists in households where the emotional boundaries were never set or were never respected. This leads to a deep brokenness within the family unit and it becomes incredibly difficult to function in a healthy way. However, there is hope! You can break the cycle in your family and begin to be the leader that walks the path and showcases what it looks like to regulate and participate in a healthy way. You can heal your enmeshment trauma!
