Spiritual bypassing harms the recipient by minimizing and shaming their pain rather than empathizing and supporting them. Many of these spiritual bypassing examples are also common Bible pat answers heard from church people when you share life problems. You have probably been the recipient of this harmful practice more than you realize, as it happens frequently. Learn to identify what this is so you will not do it and to recognize when it is being done to you. #dysfunctionalrelationship #spiritualbypassing #toxicrelationship

If you struggle with Christian codependency, you are likely a highly loyal person to everyone in your life, but have you ever thought about keeping promises to yourself? Self-care is neglected by codependents. You must get to where you know you are equally and often more important than others because you are the one who must make sure you are functioning well. Making and keeping promises to yourself is a part of codependent recovery. #dysfunctionalrelationship #christiancodependency #selfcare #selfimprovement

People who refuse to take responsibility for their own choices blame them on others. Detaching from blamers is the only thing that will enable you to not be drawn into their game. If you don't detach, you will become defensive and argue with the person to deny responsibility. You may also struggle with deep guilt and question yourself as you battle with the possibility that you are to blame. Watch this video to put an end to this by detaching from blamers. #detachment #blamers #dysfunctionalrelationship
