Why Codependents Refuse To Change


Most of the folks I've counseled wanted someone to help them "commiserate"
aka "make me feel better" about being effed up

Almost ZERO have actually made the decision to do what ever it takes to heal

Even health "professionals" want to think in terms of "treatment"

none of them really think in terms of CURE THIS MO-FO once and for all

One counselee I have is quick to resent when others "do something" real or imagined "to them"

Rather than "get pissed" over this,

how about getting pissed over paying someone else's bill?
and all of the payments you make ONLY go towards interest, the principal NEVER decreases
All of your codependency comes from your parents asking YOU to carry THEIR SHAME

the bill isn't even yours to pay.. yet your entire life you're attempting to do debt service on someone else's shame

and all of your "payments" are interest only

You're never, EVER going to pay that bill

it isn't even YOUR BILL TO PAY

you do NOT owe that
