Hmmm where do you see yourself in this diagram? 🧐 I tend to go more to the Change side because I know I don’t need to be codependent so my instinct to head into independence.

From a YT video I released on codependency - “Codependency and Childhood Trauma”⁠
⠀⁠
We often have a vague assumption about what codependency is, and it's not just needing someone by us for security. ⠀⁠
⠀⁠
It's a complex survival strategy that I think stems a lot from childhood trauma. ⠀⁠
⠀⁠
It's the types of strategies that help redefine what codependency is. ⠀⁠
⠀⁠
On the left we have a care taking type. ⁠
On the right, we have a change others type.⁠
⠀⁠
What unites all codependent types is control, manipulation, poor communication, and low self-esteem. ⠀⁠
⠀⁠
In the video, I discuss:⠀⁠
⠀⁠
- how codependency originates in the abusive family system.⠀⁠
⠀⁠
- what strategy did we come up with as children to deal with our parents individually⁠
⠀⁠
- how was codependency modeled in our dysfunctional family system.

It isn’t always the path of the program we have be listening to for too long that gets you the good job and security. BUT instead what is referred to as blue collar careers are showing a lot more progress, and have been for centuries because we need their services.

We need to place more focus on going into a trade.

Yes! I am please to see how the.holistic psychologist put the explanation of disorganized attachment so simply. Because it is! Instead of one or the other it is a combination which makes sense when you’re raised in chaos, sometimes neglect, and often by emotionally muted caregivers.

Many of us deeply one love, and have been taught I fear it. This is an attachment style where we can go hot or cold. We can come on strong and seek security— they feel a strong desire to self isolate.

Attachment is wired into our biology, but it’s also fluid. Through healthy communication, awareness, and a partner who is willing to do the work we can all be more secure.

Do you notice this in yourself?
