Fusing - Can't Separate From Others

FUSING: This cluster offers a sense of having to be overly involved or
emotionally fused with important others. With fusing we might believe we
can't be happy or survive without the close support of another. Beliefs
are:
*My parents and I are locked into each other's challenges and lives.
*I can't separate myself from my parents.
*I don't have a life of my own--my parents live through me.
*My parents and I can't keep secrets from each other.
*I share the same identity with my parents or my partner.
*I can't keep a distance from loved ones.
*My loved one is so into my life that I don't know who I am or what I
want.
*I would hurt my loved ones if I broke away.
*I have no boundaries or privacy with my family.
*I can't separate my views from my loved one's views.
