You really hit the nail in every aspect of what I have lived, I love the term toxic loyalty, that is what I have felt my whole life
finally someone is talking about this!
Such an important topic!!
This is my whole life.😥😥😥😥 my mother use say if a child leaves my house I don't ever want to see them again. I stayed around taking care of her until she died.
Thank you for sharing your story....
That horrible guilt, even thinking about doing what's good for me and what's my heart's desire... close to 40, still trying to heal it and be my own person...
Almost 40 is a great time to start!
@@BradShore thank you! This means a lot 😊
I’ve known people whose parents obviously did that. They were the most likely to rebel, and when I was in grad school, working as a hall director in a freshman women’s dorm, the girls whose parents had done this to them were most likely to careen off the rails, and had trouble with decision-making on their own. They were likely to get together with men who did much the same thing to them.
Yes 'decision-making' is a common symptom.....thanks Beth!
TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT! Who’s comfort? The parent’s comfort!
Can you talk more about the guilt an emotionally smothered child feels when they get their own house, get married, ect and the parent is offended by their independence. I don’t know how to process the guilt sometimes
This video is about MEEE 😩
God that’s why i am scared to take risks! Wowzers. I am challenging myself and pushing myself to go for things regardless of fear. Get back on that bike and try! 🚲
Thank you for this. Your videos have helped me understand my own childhood neglect and being to process.
Keep challenging yourself Savaronius!
Man, my ex broke up with me due to the enmeshment with his parents, specifically his mother. He couldn’t let go of that comfort. So unfortunate...
Wow. Heard myself say for years " yeah, I'm loyal to a fault"... I am 41. Never questioned where this came from. Wow I haven't even gotten to the end of this video and I am unfortunately relating to EVERY word.
I thought I was afraid of committing but it didn't feel "true"... Turns out it's fear of engulfment. Been through that with my family, I've been engulfed in a romantic relationship too. Now still afraid a partner will never allow me to grow as a person.
Thank you very much for your work!
You're welcome Maksim!
Hi Brad, didn’t realise until you explained it that this happened to me and has undoubtedly affected my approach to life and my relationships. Fortunately I have discovered ways of managing it but it’s good to have it explained to me thanks
This one definitely hit home!!!
I’m showing this to a friend who had toxic parents. He truly struggles with his emotions particularly in any emotionally challenging situation. Thank you! Wonderfully informative video
Wow, even if that was an example...It got me thinking..I don't know how to ride a bicycle till date...and apart from mundane work....it generally takes a hell lot of planning to come to a decision for any task. #qualityContent 🥂👍🌻
Any age is a good time to learn to "ride a bike"!! :)
Well damn. This explains A LOT.
Engulfment is not fun to deal with
Awesome video, very relevant to my healing journey! Thanks for this :)
Glad it was helpful Amber!
