Hi Bridget, nice to meet you and at the same time I'm sorry.
Because I'm in the club with you: codependent and figuring it's a matter of managing it and growing in experience and gaining wisdom to hopefully lessen the "disease" that I think it is.
It sucks. I hate it. And maybe one day it will be erased. But I give myself (and others) credit for realizing it, seeing what they're doing, and learning from the mistakes.
And the fact that I'll keep making them is the hardest part to deal with. Call me a perfectionist internalizer. I like it better than co-dependent (that's such a BUZZWORD!) I hate buzzwords ::::mutter mutter::::
