7 Signs Of Codependency

I never knew what Codependency was a THING? I will never forget the day I was seeking help going through my divorce. The description that was given to me sounded much like my situation. So I took a leap of faith that day picking out the material and going to the class. Since that day it blew my mind how much CODEPENDENCY was a serious issue in my life. I wanted to share with you 20 Simple Signs of CODEPENDENCY and see which ones stand out to you.

• Having no boundaries set up between you and the other person. If the other person is taking more from you emotionally or even physically boundaries need to be set.
• Are you always reacting to the other party emotionally? If so, then the next step is to really start seeking inner strength to control those emotions.
• Do you always feel like you HAVE to take care of this person for EVERYTHING? Well, you don’t necessarily have to. With disciplined emotions and the right boundaries you can be able to help this person more peacefully and in moderation.
• Do you always feel like YOU have to have control of others? If so, then you really should check yourself in the mirror because there is only one person who has ALL control over everyone and ALL situations and the our FATHER in HEAVEN. And you are putting your trust in YOU more than you are IN HIM.
• Are you able to communicate HONESTLY? If you have to feel as if you are what they call GASLIGHTING so that you get around or not upset someone and can’t be honest with the other person bc you are worried what they might think do or say. Then you are enabling a lot of the core issues in a codependent relationship.
• Are you justifying someones mistakes and getting them out of trouble all the time? Their mistakes are not your responsibility and they will never learn from their own mistakes when someone is always saving them by putting it in your own hands.
• Do you always feel like you have to be liked by this other person? Or that you have to ALWAYS be in a relationship? This one speaks to me more than anything being in my season of SINGLENESS.

If any one of these 7 SIGNS stand out to you, then you may be dealing with CODEPENDENCY. I wish I would learned more about these signs years ago and I would have saved myself from a lot of heartache. I hope they help you as much as they helped me. BE FREE from HINDERING yourself from CODEPENDENCY.
