I will be the first to admit just how easy it is to lose yourself in a relationship and become entirely dependent on another person. Whether it's in an emotional way, financial, or psychological. Codependency is a common human tendency that manifests across all sorts of relationships.
Codependent behaviors stem from our need for connection, validation, and security. Which when you think about it, are all natural human needs. All sorts of factors contribute to the development of codependency; be it past experiences, upbringing, low self-esteem, fear of abandonment, and the list pretty much goes on. All of these elements intertwine and create a cycle of seeking external validation and losing sight of what's most important: you and your own boundaries.
Overcoming codependency is a process and it's not always linear. It involves self-awareness, constant efforts for personal growth, and learning to communicate effectively and assertively. It's a journey towards reclaiming autonomy and will be worth it in the long run. But in the meantime, here is a collection of witty memes about codependency as a reminder to not take things too seriously.
