Healthy Climb

While this is not a mental health-related disorder, it contributes greatly to mental health disorders and can even be the root cause. Some examples of issues which contribute to familial dysfunction are emotional abuse, neglect, codependency, enabling and enmeshment. In the case of abuse and neglect, simply being in the presence of the abuser can trigger intense emotional states that can be very difficult to navigate. Other forms are toxic family members and systemic invalidation, both of which can contribute greatly to mental health disorders.
