Codependency

Nowadays, we label anyone as codependent who might be needy or clingy in their relationships. However, codependency is a more complex phenomenon.

What is codependency?
It’s a psychological condition stemming from unresolved trauma and emotional wounds that make a person excessively reliant on a loved one for emotional security and fulfillment.
