Boundaries
Do you find it hard to say no? Is it hard to ask for what you need? Are you not even sure what you want or need?
Do you experience yourself becoming very attached very quickly, unable to let go?
Perhaps you feel invaded or burdened by your partner or someone else’s dependency on you.
Maybe you are flammable or overbearing in some way.
We come to relationships with different ideas of how close and how much contact feels good to have. Some of us are very expressive while others seem to hold everything in.
Whether we realize it or not, how we feel and how those around us experiences us is greatly effected by how we manage boundaries. This is an incredibly valuable aspect of ourselves to pay attention to and to work on in therapy.
