10 HIDDEN SIGNS Your TOXIC RELATIONSHIP AND Family Dynamic is Hurting You

Sometimes after repeated experiences of loss, grief, and mistreatment you can develop something known as counter-dependency.

A fear of becoming emotionally dependent on someone else can wreck havoc on any potential healthy relationship you could have.

In this experience, you may also find yourself suffering from a series of existential challenges you may not immediately identify.

In this live chat, I discuss the psychology of counter-dependency and existential challenges.
