Checking your self inventory

I went to our first family therapy session at the rehab for PO and the therapist was talking about checking your self inventory. She did a little exercise with some of the characteristics of both addiction/ and co dependency....I am so co dependent but I don't believe PO's addiction has anything to do with making me this way...I have always had these things as far as I can remember. Does anyone have a self inventory check list?

I do Lady...I started this when I started working the 4th step. That fearless, moral inventory. I have learned that I was codependent from way back, even when I denied it to the end. It is really hard work that we do, but it is important work. I could easily see where I needed a lot of work and what things I needed to work on.

My biggest one was control. I made all kinds of excuses for how or why I had the need to control. Again..tough work. Good for you. I love now, revealing new things about "me" :)

I'm really, really new to this and just realized I am co-dependent a few days ago. What is self inventory.
