As adult children of dysfunctional families we operate in a world of
extremes – always seeking that healthy balance, the Golden Mean, but
always seeming to fall short of the mark. The pendulum swings to one extreme and we feel
lonely, isolated, and afraid.
We tire of this, and it swings to the other extreme, where we
feel enmeshed, smothered, and angry. Then it swings back again. This is true in many areas of our lives, until we
get into a solid recovery program.
Taken from the book, “The Secrets of Dysfunctional Families”, John
Friel & Linda Friel.
