Codependency
While working my program and realizing just how codependent I am I began to wonder how I got here. I had a great childhood. No alcoholism or abuse. We went to church as a family. We had fantastic vacations. My dad was a teacher and my mom was a nurse. I had what I consider a fairy tale upbringing. In the literature I have read there are several references to what happened when we were young, etc...I cannot think of any one thing growing up that led to me being so codependent. I honestly think that everyone is a codie to some degree. The more I read, the more I am convinced that codependence is rampant among so many people. I am working on my codie self very hard but there is that little voice in me that wants to blurt out to other's, "you are codependent and need help! Let me suggest the book Codependent No More to you!"
Thanks for letting me share!!
