Gianna~I guess what I'm trying to say, is that alcoholism and Codependencey are very much alike. I always knew that they were, but I didn't really come to terms with it until my counselor pointed it out.

Much like an A going through the obession, withdrawal, cravings, etc. I too, have been going through obsessing over him and the control I once had. I never in a million years thought I could compare my Codie habits to that of an A. To me it's somewhat chilling and frightnening. I always looked at A's and thought what an awful thing to be afflicted with, when in reality, Codependencey is much the same, minus the booze.

I guess she pointed out my behaviour and did compare it to an A's; she is right. Although yes, I'm getting the help I need, almost like an A becoming sober.
