It helps you understand the impact of parentification, where you may have taken on emotional roles far beyond your age, becoming the caretaker instead of the child. It explores dissociation-that sense of feeling disconnected from yourself or your reality-not as a flaw, but as a natural response to overwhelming situations. And it shines a light on hypervigilance, the constant state of alertness that once helped you navigate unpredictability but may now leave you feeling exhausted and on edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough clear and compassionate insight, you will begin to recognize patterns you may have thought were simply part of your personality: difficulty setting boundaries, overthinking, fear of abandonment, or feeling responsible for other people's emotions. This book does not blame or accuse. Instead, it offers clarity, helping you understand how your past shaped your emotional world so you can begin to separate who you are from what you had to do to survive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBorderline Mothers\u003c\/em\u003e is not a clinical manual. It speaks in a way that feels real, human, and deeply personal, capturing the emotional complexity of growing up in an unstable environment. It is for anyone who has ever felt confused about their childhood, questioned their own perceptions, or struggled to explain why relationships feel so intense or overwhelming.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHealing does not begin with fixing everything at once. It begins with recognition-with understanding-with finally being able to say, \"This is what happened, and it affected me.\" From there, change becomes possible. You can begin to release the patterns that no longer serve you, develop healthier boundaries, and build a sense of safety within yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you have ever felt like something in your past was difficult but impossible to explain, this book will help you make sense of it. It will remind you that your experiences are real, your feelings are valid, and you are not alone. Most importantly, it will show you that while your past may have shaped you, it does not have to define you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 146\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.31 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 07, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44754588270727,"sku":"9781787930360","price":23.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/6tBNQXx03Q9781787930360.webp?v=1780087815","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/borderline-mothers-recover-from-parentification-process-dissociation-and-end-the-cycle-of-hypervigilance-and-self-sabotage-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
