Fundamentalist parents can see their children as extensions of themselves, refusing to accept them for who they are. This can foster emotional enmeshment with their children, leading to a dysfunctional relationship where the child feels ultimately responsible for their parents’ feelings.

I have noticed how beautiful it is to see people practicing social media #boundaries so openly and fearlessly here, as someone recovering from #enmeshment / co-dependant dynamics I am honestly really relieved to see it being practiced somewhere (irl I struggle to find many people who operationalise them)

What Happens When Your Career Becomes Your Whole Identity

Many people with high-pressure jobs find themselves unhappy with their careers, despite working hard their whole lives to get to their current position. Hating your job is one thing – but what happens if you identify so closely with your work that hating your job means hating yourself?Psychologists use the term “enmeshment” to describe a situation where the boundaries between people become blurred, and individual identities lose importance. Enmeshment prevents the development of a stable, independent sense of self. While identifying closely with your career isn’t necessarily bad, it makes you vulnerable to a painful identity crisis if you burn out, get laid off, or retire. Individuals in these situations frequently suffer anxiety, depression, and despair. By claiming back some time for yourself and diversifying your activities and relationships, you can build a more balanced and robust identity in line with your values.
