Emotional Dependency & Enmeshment

The capacity for emotion sets us apart from all things living. It gives us the capability for healthy, deep and intimate relationships. What does it look like when our relationships are too enmeshed emotionally? In this episode of Breaking Bread, Brian Sutter and Kathy Knochel teach us about enmeshment and the dangers of being too emotionally dependent on others.    Show notes  While we are to receive and give support to others, we are not to take ultimate responsibility for other's wellbeing. Unhealthy emotional dependency can happen when two or more individuals lose their independence and identity to the relationship. Individuals assume unhealthy responsibility for the feelings of others. Often it is marked with overwhelm and exhaustion on the part of one and deeply felt need on the part of the other. When this occurs in the family system, it often goes by the term enmeshment. However, emotional dependency can occur between unrelated friends also.     Finding health for individuals in emotionally dependent relationships will require some action.   First there needs to be a recognition of emotional dependency.  Second, boundaries will need to be put in place to promote safety between the individuals.   Third, individuals will feel a mixture of guilt and loss. Working through these emotional realities is necessary.   Finally, reengaging in the relationship at the healthiest level possible.

Hi, Do you have a question for us? Ask away!This episode will resonate with anyone struggling with an overdeveloped sense of responsibility to others and those who feel “stuck” in cycles of overgiving. In this solo episode, Gemma dives deep into the self-sacrifice schema, exploring how it manifests, its origins in family dynamics, and the toll it takes on those who constantly prioritize others over themselves. This schema, often seen in people who struggle with setting boundaries, can lead to burnout, resentment, and a diminished sense of self-worth.Gemma delves into the drama triangle—the roles of victim, rescuer, and persecutor—and explains how these dynamics often shape and reinforce the self-sacrifice schema. Additionally, she examines the enmeshment schema, which often appears alongside self-sacrifice, further complicating one's ability to differentiate personal needs from the needs of others.Topics covered include:Defining the Self-Sacrifice Schema: How it drives people to prioritize others' needs over their own, even to their detriment.Origins of the Schema: Common family dynamics that foster self-sacrifice, such as growing up with an over-entitled or narcissistic parent, or being cast into the rescuer role in the drama triangle.The Schema's Impact on Relationships: Why those with a strong self-sacrifice schema often attract self-absorbed partners and struggle to set boundaries.Enmeshment and Self-Sacrifice: How enmeshment can fuel self-sacrifice by creating a sense of responsibility for others' emotions and well-being.Schemas and Coping Styles: Different coping modes, including surrendering to, avoiding, or overcompensating for the schema.The Role of Guilt and Empathic Distress: How these emotions fuel self-sacrifice behaviors and make it difficult to prioritize self-care.Practical Exercises: Techniques like chair work to identify core beliefs tied to self-sacrifice and to build a healthier relationship with oneself.Support the showCan you help support our continued production.

On the heels of Andre's punchy episode, Tolu changes the tempo this week. If André was pop punk, Tolu is smooth jazz. His voice is gentle and comforting, and his spirit matches. Tolu doesn't have a childhood trauma story to tell, but he does have a problem he needs help with, and it just happens to involve one of Renée's favorite topics: meddling moms. Despite a childhood he calls "fun" and the easy awareness that his mom loves him, Tolu, now 29, finds himself dreading contact with her. What's going on? Enmeshment is the name of the game, and Renée gets in there and sorts the boundary problems and solutions, while Tolu tries to get Renée and Ashley to talk about themselves - and succeeds a few times. Ultimately, Renée and Tolu not only conduct a master class on boundaries, they also discuss how to navigate unbalanced romantic and platonic relationships and the relationship between codependency and social anxiety. Renée gives Tolu concrete strategies for managing all of it, Tolu gives us all reasons to root for him.Support the show

In this episode, we sat down with Adam Lane Smith to discuss attachment theory. Adam shares how to identify your attachment style, how to foster a secure attachment with your own children, and how to apply those learnings to all of your relationships. TakeawaysAttachment theory focuses on the formation of healthy, loving, and collaborative relationships.There are three main attachment styles: secure, avoidant, and anxious.Attachment issues can be formed in childhood due to various factors, such as lack of bonding with parents or traumatic experiences.Birth experiences may impact attachment formation, but it is possible to improve attachment styles through explicit love and nurturing.Bonding hormones, such as oxytocin, GABA, vasopressin, and serotonin, play a crucial role in attachment and can be influenced by positive experiences.Collaboration and asking questions are essential tools for parents to create secure attachment with their children.Divorce can have a significant impact on attachment styles, and it is crucial to provide context and foster oxytocin bonding with adopted children.Couples with different attachment styles can improve their relationship by being explicit about their needs, fostering collaboration, and building a marriage agreement.The breakdown of the family structure over the past century has led to challenges in attachment and relationship dynamics.Providing a safe and nurturing environment is key to developing secure attachment in both parent-child and couple relationships. Solving problems together in a relationship opens up oxytocin receptors and fosters intimacy and connection.Avoidant attachment style is characterized by a wall up, lack of trust, and an emphasis on survival. Anxious attachment style is characterized by a fear of abandonment and a focus on pleasing others.Enmeshment is a form of insecure attachment where boundaries are poor and caretaking becomes the responsibility of the child.Secure attachment involves open and explicit communication, clear boundaries, and a focus on generosity and adjusting for reality.Attachment styles can vary in different relationships and situations, but fostering secure attachment at home is crucial for healthy relationships outside the home.Nature and genetics may play a role in attachment, but it is the parent's job to nurture and guide their child towards secure attachment.Building a self-correcting family system where open communication and resolution of issues is encouraged is more important than striving for perfection as a parent.Find Adam Lane Smith HERE.

Enmeshment refers to relationships that have become so intertwined that boundaries are nonexistent or identical. While this concept most often occurs between a primary caregiver and their child, it can also happen in romantic relationships. Although enmeshment can initially lessen worries around abandonment and rejection, ongoing enmeshment can lead to resentment and low relationship satisfaction. Reference: The Attachment Project You may ask how does enmeshment relate to trauma bonding? Trauma bonding occurs when a deep emotional bond is formed with someone who has been harmful toward you, and is often marked by repeated cycles of abuse coupled with positive reinforcement. The codependent nature of enmeshment makes removing oneself from a trauma bond extremely difficult and can lead to continuous patterns of abuse, neglect and abandonment.

Cycle breakers go through a process of self-healing and take ownership of their healing journey. They consciously choose to address and heal themselves first before speaking out against the dysfunctional patterns. Our host, Paden, explores different examples of dysfunctional patterns, such as generational trauma and abuse, poverty mindset, and financial mismanagement.

However, it is a sacred mission to divert the family lineage from dysfunction to a higher path. The episode explores the concept of being a cycle breaker in a family and the challenges and importance of breaking unhealthy patterns and generational trauma. It discusses examples of dysfunctional family dynamics, such as codependency and enmeshment, and the need for healthy boundaries.

This week on Calling Home, Whitney speaks with therapist and author Nedra Tawwab on the concept of enmeshment in family relationships. They talk about what enmeshment is and what makes it different from a close family relationship. Nedra emphasizes the importance of setting healthy boundaries and respecting the autonomy of others, especially as children grow and become independent. She suggests that enmeshment can be addressed by gradually reducing contact to a comfortable level, asserting one's own needs and desires, and not expecting others to agree with or validate personal decisions.  Follow Nedra Tawwab on Instagram at @nedratawwab.
