Whats the difference between co-dependency and coping a with a difficult relationship/ situation?
How do you really discern the difference? |
|

By the relative size and sharpness of the objects being thrown at you???

If you base all of your decisions and emotions on the other person then you're co-dependent. If you lose your sense of self and rely on the other person to bolster your sense of self, then you're co-dependent. JMO

If you can't tell the difference, its time to restore the discering part of the mind to clear mode.

It's the opposite of being co-INdependent where you encourage each others successes and cheer flight.
It's (as said before) losing such a sense of self that you cling to your partner, and are possessive of their movement, and suspicious/fearful when they leave your monitored comfort zone. |
