Heal Play Love University- Why Do I Have Depression and Anxiety When Healing From Co-Dependency?
Healing from codependency. Healing from codependency on YouTube. Therapy Channel. Why do I have Depression and Anxiety while healing from codependency? How to stop being codependent.
This therapy vlog explores why we get depression or anxiety symptoms during a supposedly happy time of becoming healthy. (Yes, that is an OU hoodie.) You’ve had some aha moments, you realize there are some problems with the way you have interacted with others in the past. You no longer accept emotional manipulation or bullying as normal.
You’ve stepped back emotionally to evaluate. You’ve implemented new patterns of thought and behavior into your situation or relationship. You are healing from co-dependency! But something still feels “off.” And here's a possible explanation of why...
There’s this awkward process when you realize that co-dependency no longer works for you. You’ve gained insight and grown emotionally but those around you haven’t. This means that you are left with a disconnect you didn’t have before. You see, before, you clicked, you connected with your significant other or counterparts because your dysfunction matched theirs.
Where they were needy, you were willing to fill the holes. You knew how to respond to the emotional distancing, the criticism, the blame shifting- and when you did; when you were able to successfully fit the bill- you felt connected. Either that, or you would withdraw until the other came to collect you.
