What is a codependent relationship?  Codependency is essentially an underlying agreement that two people have in a destructive relationship. A relationship imbalance occurs where one person enables another person's addiction, poor mental health, immaturity, irresponsibility, under-achievement etc. A core characteristic of codependency is an excessive reliance on other people for approval and a sense of identity. Codependency is often an undetected dynamic at play in many relationships and yet the results of it can be debilitating  to both parties involved; leading to a lack of trust, weak boundaries, suppressed anger and controlling behaviour to name a few. How can you tell if you are in a codependent relationship? What role do boundaries play?  We tackle these questions and more to help you identify it, and; offer useful information to help you overcome it.
