You may have grown up where boundaries were strict and harsh. This could lead to an inability to express your feelings or to keep everyone at arm\u2019s length. Having no boundaries will lead to you and others being enmeshed. When this happens, your roles are interchangeable and blurred and you will not establish your sense of identity. As you get older, your relationships mirror those of the past and history begins to repeat itself. As you fall into the same patterns, you increase your risk of experiencing depression or anxiety and may fall into drugs and alcohol to help cope. Tonight, we talk about setting boundaries Our generous Recovered Podcast Community allows us to be self supporting and not rely on outside contributions.  If you would like to join us, there are three ways.

By setting boundaries, you no longer allow others to take advantage of you and you begin to find your voice and learn how to use it. Your communication with others improves as you express your thoughts and feelings.

An added benefit is that you begin to establish your sense of self. First thought? What Are Healthy and Unhealthy Boundaries? For you, what is a healthy boundary?
