We have physical boundaries, intellectual boundaries, social boundaries, emotional boundaries, spiritual boundaries, and sexual boundaries. Boundaries are a tool that God use to serve three of His most important values: Love, Responsibility, and Freedom. Many people struggle with relationships in which there is irresponsibility, hurt, or control.They don't know how to handle conflict or even their own responsibilities.

You are deeply loved, completely forgiven, fully pleasing, totally accepted, and complete in Christ. This is the first step in breaking the cycle. We admit powerlessness and unmanageable over toxic relationship. We come to believe that Jesus Christ can restore us. We make a decision to turn our lives and will over to the care of God. This is the beginning of the journey. You must believe that my worth is not based on my performance and others opinions. I am loved unconditionally; accepted by God, completely forgiven, and fully pleasing. I can have a healthy relationship with me. I can have relationship with God. I can spend time with myself and I can spend time in relationship and fellowship with God and others. Breaking the cycle isn't easy. Breaking the cycle is a process not an event. In other word, this condition will not simply disappear; time alone cannot heal your pain. You need to experience deep healing in self concept, in your relationship with God and others. Overcoming the mine field of the mind: perfectionism, anxiety and fear, depression, avoiding risk, pride, anger and resentment, being easily manipulated. basing our self worth on what we believe others think of us causes us to become addicted to their approval. 01:01:00The Couch Counselingnotoxic relationships,codependency,addictions,approval addicts,emotional dependencyYou are deeply loved, completely forgiven, fully pleasing, totally accepted, and complete in Christ.
