Codependency
Molly Heffernan
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Codependency can feel like a constant struggle, where your well-being is tied to the needs and emotions of others. If you find yourself in this pattern, know that you are not alone, and it’s okay to seek help. Codependency often stems from a deep place of love and care, but it can lead to losing touch with your own needs and desires. Healing from codependency involves learning to set healthy boundaries, nurturing your self-worth, and finding balance in your relationships. Help is available and you deserve to learn to prioritize your own happiness and well-being. Doing this is not a reflection of your lack of care for someone else, but a reflection of showing up for and respecting yourself.
