Family chaos

Caregivers who are likely to interact with their college-aged child in a chaotically-enmeshed manner may not support their child in gaining the necessary autonomy and skills to become a self-reliant adult. In response to their own thoughts and feelings during interpersonal family distress, individuals are likely to employ psychologically inflexible strategies (i.e., rumination, negative judgement of thoughts and feelings), which then may foster increased anxiety symptomology.https://self-compassion.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Berryhill2018.pdf
