Identifying High Functioning Codependency
High functioning codependency involves a person being excessively invested in the emotions and outcomes of others, often at the expense of their own well-being. Many individuals do not recognize this behavior as codependent because they feel strong and accomplished, which can create a false sense of security. For instance, a successful professional may go out of their way to ensure that colleagues' needs are met, even when it leads to personal exhaustion. Understanding the signs of high functioning codependency is crucial, as it lets individuals acknowledge unhealthy patterns that diminish their quality of life.
