[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 740922, member: 18958"] I think that this is CD in a nutshell. Oh that it would be easy to arrive in this place. But what I am coming to is that it is a gift to be compelled to find a way to rise above our suffering and to decide to live well, to be a good person, to be useful and productive, to create meaning and well-being and occasionally to feel joy. We can do this if we take responsibility for ourselves. If we keep centered in them, keep our well-being tied to them, WE ARE DOING THE SAME THING AS THEM: Abdicating responsibility for ourselves, tying our well-being to the actions of somebody or something outside of ourselves. Co-dependency is dependency of both parties. If one person breaks the cycle, there is no more co-dependency. We are depending upon them for our well-being, as long as our day to day, moment to moment state of mind, depends upon some action by them: that they call; that they seek treatment; that they stop drugs; that they love us, etc.. I am speaking about myself here. Nobody else. [/QUOTE]
