NeeAnahQuestion. Is there anyone here who is also on the path of quitting marijuana? I need support. I feel super lonely in this. It's been hard to enjoy anything. I am having a lot of nightmares. I feel so low. Everything hurts. I don't know how to talk to people. I'm having a hard time even putting thoughts together. It's been challenging.
Margaret Sefton<p>I think plants are a great reminder when one is in the midst of setting boundaries in co-dependent relationships that beautiful things survive and thrive on their own without much fussing. <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/plants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>plants</span></a> <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/codependency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>codependency</span></a> <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/depression" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>depression</span></a></p>

Janice Selbie<p>Especially important for those raised in religious homes, where codependency is encouraged. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/ReligiousTrauma" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ReligiousTrauma</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/codependency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>codependency</span></a></p>

Janice Selbie<p>Fundamentalist parents can see their children as extensions of themselves, refusing to accept them for who they are. This can foster emotional enmeshment with their children, leading to a dysfunctional relationship where the child feels ultimately responsible for their parents’ feelings.

Janice SelbieDivorce as transition
Janice Selbie<p>As an <a href="https://mas.to/tags/exchristian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>exchristian</span></a> it can be hard to express personal <a href="https://mas.to/tags/anger" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>anger</span></a>. The key is in recognizing that anger typically indicates a violation of <a href="https://mas.to/tags/boundaries" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>boundaries</span></a>. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/religions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>religions</span></a> have a vested interest in adherents remaining <a href="https://mas.to/tags/obedient" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>obedient</span></a> &amp; <a href="https://mas.to/tags/subservient" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>subservient</span></a> , demanding they offer <a href="https://mas.to/tags/forgiveness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>forgiveness</span></a>.

Janice Selbie<p>Another important truth: YOU ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR OTHER PEOPLE’S FEELINGS. Especially engrain this truth in your being if you have narcissistic, manipulative, emotionally immature parents or other family members. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Christianity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Christianity</span></a>, in particular, fosters <a href="https://mas.to/tags/codependency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>codependency</span></a> and makes it hard to enjoy life without constantly serving or caring for others like a martyr.
