Co-dependency is not something that you can be diagnosed with per se if you see some part of yourself or your own experience in what I am describing there is a lot of professional help out there for you and there are people that you can talk to. In co-dependent relationships there is going to be an imbalance of power if you are giving much more energy time love patients to another person who is really only using you for their own needs That's probably the biggest indicator so according to this clinical psychologist I think their name was Coded. The general psychological community hasn't really caught up to the fact that dependent personality disorder and co- Dependency are actually quite hand in hand.
This week we discuss codependency and how it can manifest in our friendships and relationships in our 20’s. We break down some of the misconceptions around codependency, the origins of the terms and early signs our relationships may be codependent. We also dive into the difference between healthy dependency and maladapative codependency and how we can recenter and restore balanced and mutual relationships with those in our lives.
