You can't fix them, change them, rescue them, you can enable them, you can lose yourself, you'll be in agony, you need a healing recovery process afterwards because many people with codependency have a cluster B parent, not all, but many.
Ever felt like you're walking on eggshells around someone with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)? In this episode, A.J. Mahari tackles the tough truths about trying to help those with BPD make healthier life choices. It's not as simple as it sounds, and Mahari breaks down why. She addresses a controversial YouTuber who misleadingly claims that codependents need to be 'perfect' before engaging with someone with BPD.
