ENMESHMENT

Is This You?

Signs You’re Struggling with Mother-Son Enmeshment

• Enmeshment occurs when a parent or caregiver relies on their child to fulfill their emotional needs, often without realising the impact. This dynamic can blur the lines between love and dependency, leading to confusion and emotional struggles in adulthood.

  • Do you feel obligated to manage a parent's feelings or emotional well-being?

  • Do you struggle with guilt or anxiety when asserting your independence?

  • Do you have a sense of being overly entangled in a parent's life, often to the detriment of yourself or a loved one?

  • Do you have difficulty in forming close, balanced relationships with others?

  • Do you have confusion around personal boundaries and identity?

  If this sounds familiar, it’s time to RECLAIM your life
