Quotes:
As Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby explains, "Codependent individuals often derive their sense of purpose from meeting the needs of their partner, which can lead to resentment and emotional exhaustion."
As one mental health professional notes, "Children of codependent parents often struggle with self-worth and may develop similar dependency issues."
Dr. Salvador Minuchin describes enmeshment as a state where "family members are overly concerned with each other's emotions, making it difficult for them to develop independently."
As Melody Beattie wisely states, "Once I realized it was okay for me to think about and identify what I wanted, remarkable things began to take place in my life".
As Darlene Lancer notes, "When we let go of our reactions and detach from other people's moods, actions, and words, we take back our power".
