1:10Now PlayingFamily estrangement often brings relief at first because people don't walk away from relationships hoping to be unhappy.
But research shows that for many people, the relief doesn't last. Over time, family estrangement is associated with higher rates of depression, poorer physical health, and chronic unhappiness.
We're wired for connection with our kin. When those bonds break, something deep within us recognizes that the relationship isn't as it should be.
Not every family conflict can be repaired. Not every relationship is safe. But before accepting permanent distance as the only answer, it's worth asking whether reconciliation is still possible.
