Co-dependency is an expression of the False Self developed in a narcissistic &/or alcoholic home. It's the compulsion to find one's identity through the eyes of other people, instead of from inside oneself. (Blog : 2017)
Whether you are living with a person who is in active addiction or who is struggling with an unregulated mental health concern, codependency is a very normal struggle. There are many ways that people with codependency can start to focus on their own needs and remember that they matter. Some people with codependency are dealing with issues related to growing up in dysfunctional families. I help a variety of struggles related to this concern.
