Codependency

This book will provide you with simple strategies and ways that you can move past feelings of codependency, and begin taking care of the most important person in your life, you! If you aren't healthy emotionally and physically, how can you expect to take care of anyone else? Right? It's important to not let a pattern of enabling take over who you are as a human being. You have a life as well, need to live it, and enjoy yourself.

Here are just a few things you are going to learn:

- What is codependency, and why should you avoid it?

- How to recognize a possibly codependent person?

- Fix it or get rid of it? (find the best solution to your situation)

- Can codependency be beneficial? Specific situations are covered in detail

- What is toxic love, and how to get over it?

- Self-control strategies in emotional dependence

- . . . And much, much more!

Codependency is a word that you may have heard before and assumed that you know what it means; however, it is a much more nuanced term than many realize and covers a wide array of traits, patterns, and outcomes that go beyond a simple definition. In this chapter we will seek to define codependency and understand what it essentially is, as well as what it is not.
