Feeling stuck in a relationship with a parent who has borderline or narcissistic personality disorder can be overwhelming. The fear of triggering them can leave you feeling paralyzed and like you have no options. But here’s the thing: doing nothing is making a choice—and it’s probably not the one that serves you best.
In this episode, I share practical strategies for navigating those moments when every option seems difficult (because, let’s be honest, that’s often the reality when you have a parent with BPD or NPD). Join me to learn how to break free from feeling stuck and start making choices that prioritize your well-being.
