Codependency Support Group
Codependency is defined as someone who exhibits too much, and often inappropriate, caring for another person's struggles. A codependent person may try to change, or feel shame about their most private thoughts and feelings if they conflict with the other person's struggles. If you are on a journey towards self-love, this support group is for you. Join us and find others...
Hi,
I thought this may be an interesting topic for sharing.
One thing that had programmed throughout my developmental years was acting as a parent with my adults.
The part I hated about it was that they were the ones who had the power, and I was aggravated so much by the craziness that I ended up feeling.
Of course I didn't know what was really happening at the time. This is one thing that conditioned me to act codependently in my adulthood.

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

Has anyone tried these supplements? Do they give MGers more quality of life by improving memory and overall well being?Thanks!Barbel
My father cheated on my mother and she cried on my shoulder every day through high school when I got home. If I wanted to eat I had to call her at work and tell her to bring home food and then I would sit and play therapist to her for the rest of the night. I am certain that this is a part of the reason I have the troubles I do today. I remember feeling like I was the mother and she was the child, but as you said I had no power to do anything really.
i guess there was a lack of boundaries in both of our families??
thanks for the tip mgs. i'll add it to the list.
