    Cutting Ties - Family Estrangement and Abandonment

    Society tells us that family bonds are unbreakable -- that your sister should be your best friend, that you should call your mom several times a day just to chat. Well it's great when life works out like that. But the truth is, that often isn't the case. This week Jaime tackles the difficult topic of family estrangement with the help of therapist Melanie Storrusten. They go in-depth on Jaime’s own struggles with her mom and siblings -- which she traces back to the death of her dad when she was 17 years old -- and answer questions from listeners. Is it possible to cut off your mom without hurting her? What should you do if other people in your family shame you for creating boundaries for yourself? Plus, how to talk about your family in social situations if you are estranged from them.   FYI: Tell Me What To Do contains mature language and themes that may not be suitable for all listeners.   Please note, this show is hosted and produced by a team that does not have any clinical or other mental or physical health training.
