Co-dependency is an unhealthy dysfunctional relationship that is unbalanced whereby one person has assumed the role of the giver or the provider. The term co-dependent like I said is often lobbied at people to describe them as kind of needy or really clingy but it is so much more than that. It's often encouraged in some ways by the giver and also the taker as well because they share in the responsibility and need for each other.
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.
