Before you can make things better, you have to stop making them worse... Have you considered that being critical, judgmental, or invalidating toward the other parent, no matter what she or he just did will only make matters worse? Someone has to be do something. This means finding the motivation to stop making things worse, learning how to interrupt your own negative responses, body language, facial expressions, voice tone, and learning how to inhibit your urges to do things that you later realize are contributing to the tensions.

Tried the best I could to move on over the last 8 month break-up. Like always it seemed inevitable that we'd reunite. BPD family warned me that I'd be back in the same boat within 10 months, but I missed her. We started counseling, talked so passionately about not making the same mistakes. Signed a 12 month lease together. 3 months into that lease, the counseling stopped, her excuse was the money, I personally feel as though its pointless to continue counseling at this point. I am witnessing the same inflammatory arguments and find myself taking the bait over and over.

Financially, I cannot afford the home we're living in by myself, I literally feel trapped, and keep assuring myself that I can just button down the hatches to get through the next 9 months.

How does one deal with prolonging the inevitable? How do you cope with feeling trapped? Do you pretend everything is okay just to get by one day at a time?
