Result: In this study, 5 main themes including 1) practical factors in the decision to emotionally cutoff; 2) the difficulties in implementing the decision to emotionally cutoff; 3) injuries caused by emotional cutoff; 4) adjustment to emotional cut off and 5) developmental aspects of emotional cut off were identified.
