Do you feel trapped in a relationship? If you feel like you are in a relationship where there is not enough room for your needs and desires, or a respect for your boundaries, Dr. Robin says you are being held hostage.

A relationship is about being related, Dr. Robin says. It's about caring about someone's feelings and having justice and fairness even when you don't get your way. Dr. Robin says it's important to be strong, speak up and get out of your personal prison. "You'll find the courage and you'll create a way out," she says.
