Co-Dependency
Posted by Elemental Growth on / 0 Comments
One thing that I think is true for all of us, is that we never completely drop the roles that we develop as a child. I am talking about the masks we wear in order to effectively give and get love, recognize how to feel safe, develop a comfort zone and learn how to connect with people. The root chakra stuff that we have to keep coming back too!!!
Codependency is one of those clinical terms, like disassociative episodes or anxiety. Most of the time the original root can be found in family karma – being a child or grandchild of alcoholic. The truth is that the relationships you developed as a child where are often emotionally destructive, manipulative, narcissistic, toxic and full of power struggles so you developed a protective skin that kept you safe, which as an adult no longer serves you. Instead this “skin” is causing you to be unsuccessful, broke, self-destructive, people pleasing, triggered and unconsciously repeat hurtful patterns.
