You may be codependent and not realise it! | Unhealthy emotions & relationships

Are you someone who looks for approval from others? Seeks out validation? Or are you someone who blames others for your emotions?

This question I got from one of my team is centered around an important concept that - codependency. This is something that a lot of people are 'addicted' to unconsciously and it's even something I had to relearn in my own relationships and communication styles too.

Watch this twice cause it might just shift how you view other people's opinions.

As a reformed people pleaser, truth! It took me attracting someone who was worse than me and having that behavior mirrored back to me 10 fold. I didn't want to be ' that person' and set out on a path of self mastery.

The way you articulate information is really something else. I’m flat out trying to string a sentence together and you’re up there stringing multiple topics into one.

My goal is that when I die, that my children can live and thrive without me. I hope that I am a good enough parent that my kids want to be around me, not because they need to, but because they want to and together we bring value to one another’s life.

Pia Mellody, Facing Co Dependency is a good book on this.

Apparently I am a Codependent.. I had no idea I was controlling because I try to make people happy ;-( ex: I think I sabotaged a good relationship because I have always tried so hard to please him and I pushed him away and my heart hurts. And although my daughter (29) is very independent in many ways, I always feel so depressed because she doesn't need to spend time with me or go out of her way to do so, as much as she does to be with her Dad and shares with everyone her precious time with him. HOW DO I BREAK THIS BAD HABIT AND GET MY JOY BACK?

Where do dependency lines have context in reaction? For instance, if one is rude to another and therefore they have an angry retort, is interdependence demonstrated by the person pushing the angry retort because their expectations have not been met or does the instigator demonstrate dependence by expecting no negative reaction? Or both?

Any insights?
