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...
i have accepted poor treatment from husband. he is controlled by his mentally ill son who is selfish, self centered and only wants his father to himself. i only see husband on week ends because he says he dosent want to be married and he dosent support me at all. this mix is self destructive to me, have lost self esteem and respect. find it hard to leave relationship compleatly. being pushed out by both of them, very little self pride self esteem. lost tens of thousands of dollars and as i said before self respect and pride. it was done to me and i accepted it. have been in denial for years, husband use to be kind and i was blinded by love
As a point of clarification, it is your husband who is codependent with his son. If the son is not doing everything he can, meds and therapy and health, about his disease, then your husband is an enabler. It certainly should not interefere this much with your marriage.
A very rich trader once told me that most people lose in the market because human nature cannot accept this one thing: CUT YOUR LOSSES. People cannot accept what they have lost and keep trying to redeem it by throwing good money after bad.
You may be addicted to the relationship and unable now to break free. If you have a higher power, pray for the willingess to break free. If you can go, it doesn't sound like there is enough to stay for.
Hugs.
