E076. Joyfully Ever After Playshop: Is Codependency Contagious?
LINKS REFERERNCED
CoDA 12-Step program: https://coda.org/
Patterns and Characteristics of Codependency: https://coda.org/meeting-materials/patterns-and-characteristics-2011/

When my kids were little, I can remember two things. First, calling myself a Mommy Doormat. Second, waking up every day asking myself "I wonder who my pound of flesh is going to feed today?" I know, gross, right?
However, part of me needed that. Because I didn't know who I was if I wasn't sacrificing myself to be, in turn, needed by other people. I didn't think a lot about love back then. My unconscious was programmed for need. Need felt more permanent, reliable, and something I could control. (HINT: important word!) I even slept next to a drawer full of thank you notes to remind myself of what others thought of me.
So, codependency. I was a classic case.
It's been a dozen years from then, and ten of those were in recovery. Beautiful, sane, tearful, joyful, recovery.
What is codependency, and how do you get it? And, when you have it, what can you do about it? And how is it different from other kinds of dependency?
If you resonate (even reluctantly) with any of the following words to describe you... People Pleaser, Doormat, Accomodating, Compliant, Self-Sacrificing, someone who Loves Too Much, The Rescuer, then you don't want to miss this playshop!
