[quote=Anonymous]Enmeshment (not good) is different than social cohesion (good). A close, loving, and supportive family is a good thing. In the latter, though, bonds are more than likely formed by unhealthy emotions like guilt and shame, your privacy is not respected and you feel as though you are responsible for your family members emotions or happiness. “You never call, you must hate me. I tried so hard to do everything for you but you can’t pick up the phone? I thought you cared but I guess not” Vs “I miss talking to you on the phone, can we schedule a time to regularly catch up? Love you!” [/quote]
