DESTRUCTIVE CO-DEPENDENCY
A co-dependent person is
one who has let another person's behavior
affect him or her, and who is obsessed with controlling that person's
behavior...
Whatever problem the other
person has, codependency involves a
habitual system of thinking, feeling, and behaving toward ourselves
and others that can cause us pain.
Co-dependent behaviors
or habits are self-destructive.
We frequently react to
people who are destroying themselves; we react
by learning to destroy ourselves. These habits can lead us into, or
keep us in, destructive relationships, relationships that don't work.
These behaviors can sabotage
relationships that may otherwise have
worked. These behaviors can prevent us from finding peace and
happiness with the most important person in our lives-ourselves. These
behaviors belong to the only person each of us can control-the only
person we can change-ourselves.
