The thing to recognize is that it’s a choice to engage in these dynamics. We can’t help how we feel and respond to individuals that fit this criteria, but we can choose to remove ourselves from situations that are harmful and from people that don’t make us feel good about ourselves.
I hope your newest therapist can help! It sounds like she is better than the others you have dealt with. Please keep posting!
