Sacrificing yourself for someone else isn't a mentally healthy or wise thing to do... It's going to bring you down. It's going to affect your mental health, your well-being, affect your efficiency at your job, or running your own company, whatever you're doing.
Ever felt like you're losing yourself while trying to support someone with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)? In this episode, A.J. Mahari tackles the tough reality of relationships with individuals diagnosed with BPD. She dives into the struggles of codependency and the emotional toll it takes on those who try to 'rescue' their partners. Mahari uses a real-life example from a viewer's comment to highlight how denial and fantasy bonds can trap people in toxic cycles.
With her 30 years of experience as a Counselor and Trauma Recovery Coach, she sheds light on why nurturing and aiding someone with BPD might not be as helpful as you think. Instead, Mahari emphasizes the need for self-care and personal boundaries. If you've ever found yourself drained and confused in a BPD relationship, this episode offers valuable insights into breaking free and reclaiming your sense of self.
Tune in to understand the importance of prioritizing your own healing journey over trying to fix someone else.
