Scenario

When family relationships get stuck in caretaker-dependent patterns

My mom and I have this pattern where she calls when she's anxious and I fix whatever the problem is, but she never actually feels better and I'm starting to resent being her emotional support system. We both know something's wrong with how we do this, but neither of us knows how to change it.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people have created a dance of helping that actually helps no one but feels impossible to stop.
