Deciding to step away from your family to live a more mentally healthy life is one of the hardest things you can decide to do. It can be very healing and rewarding but there are times where it really hurts and is really hard. The holidays is often one of the times that being estranged from your family is the hardest. All the traditions are gone. You are now alone and totally on your own. You see all the happy family holiday photos all over social media. So how do you handle this?
I'm about to go in to my third holiday season estranged from family. Walking away from a toxic relationship with my mother meant I also had to walk away from my father and all his family too. Suddenly I was in the world totally alone. Which meant I need to figure out how to get through the landmines of the holiday season. Luckily I have an amazing therapist, great friends and I've learned to function during the holidays with my chosen family. But that doesn't mean it's not still hard. So thank goodness my childhood friend whose known me since middle school is also a therapist. Julie Mishoe joins me on this episode to discuss the tightrope of emotions and needs during the holiday season when you are estranged from your family.
