Have you lost sight of who you are as an individual? If you find yourself questioning the healthiness of your relationships and struggle to stand up for what you want, you're not alone. Codependent behaviors are some of the most difficult relationship patterns to identify, yet it's rarely discussed and often considered another form of "clinginess." This definition ignores the feelings of guilt and shame that arise from the best of intentions -- it does nothing to recognize that even the best intentions can hurt. As you put yourself on the line for the people you love, it can be difficult to tell when the boundaries between you and them have blurred to the point of toxicity. After all, you're motivated by wanting the best for others, even if it means you have to put aside your own values and opinions to do so.

You may suddenly feel obligated to stay in a constricting relationship that turns you into a victim and limits your capacity for intimacy. It can feel as though you have no one to turn to because everybody relies on you. That doesn't mean your life has to stay that way. Codependency may be running your life, but you are the one in the driver's seat. In fact, you've already taken the first step by realizing you need to change the path you're on.
