I have done some reading on codependency in a parent and I’ve found that, Kinny, you are completely correct. I am positive that both of my parents are codependent…especially my mother. It makes me feel a lot better to be reminded that, I am still young, and also that many people have had traumatic childhoods that are just like mine. I’ll be sure to build a support system, read and research more, and go to counseling…I’m sure I will be in a better place once those things are set up. I’m so thankful for the help.
