The Edge with Kathy Fettke is focusing on chemical dependency the month of December but there is another dependency we donÂ’t talk about and for that matter hear about, Codependency.



We may not realize it but our own behavior may change when caring about someone with a chemical dependency. Many people become Codependent. Codependent people compulsively react to the chemically dependent persons behavior and tries to control it. Codependent habits may go unrecognized and cause great damage. They may actually help the chemically dependent person stay addicted and prevent the codependent person from living a fulfilling life, sometimes for years after the relationship is gone.



If you believe you might be codependent, learning about codependency is the first step to making a happier life for yourself. This acknowledges also help you create an environment in which a chemically dependent person can get healthy and stay that way.



Here are some recognizable questions:



Do you feel responsible for other peopleÂ’s problems?



Do you find yourself saying yes to things when you want to say NO?



Do you try desperately try to please others?



Do you feel bored or useless when you donÂ’t have a crisis in your life or another personÂ’s problem to solve?



Do you focus on mental time and attention on other people, especially from significant others?



Do you feel uncomfortable when not in a relationship even though you are in and out of highly volatile ones?



If you answered yes to any of these questions please listen to The Edge with Kathy Fettke this Sunday night, December 14 from 8 – 9 PM.
