In times of crisis, it’s easy to fall back into old patterns. Taking care of your well-being during the coronavirus pandemic involves maintaining healthy boundaries and letting go of unhealthy relationships.
We all have dependent relationships, but it’s important to recognize and assess the extent of that dependency in time. Maybe you perceive other people’s problems as acutely as your own. Or, even if unconsciously, you seek to control the life of a loved one. It’s possible that your own life without someone seems empty and meaningless to you. Perhaps you dissolve in another, forgetting about yourself. Melody Beattie calls our desire to endlessly care for and save loved ones a disease and explains how to cope with this disease so as not to completely destroy yourself.
