Healing from Codependency (CD) and Emotional Dependency (ED) is possible but first one needs to recognise the symptoms to realise that it is a problem to continue to live with these symptoms. Please learn more about CD and ED from our series of reels under "Introduction to CD and ED" at cru.sg/cded first.
The reason why many continue to stay in unhealthy codependent or emotionally dependent relationships is a lack of awareness of what are the root issues and causes that drive these unhealthy behaviours in relationships. Only with awareness can we begin to heal and change.
Healing will involve going back to heal the attachment injuries and adverse experiences in childhood of shame, rejection and abandonment that have caused us to develop unhealthy attachment styles in relationships.
