Codependency and Family

When someone in the family is dealing with addiction, it is common for at least one person in the family to become an enabler for the addiction. This is usually because they themselves gain some sort of comfort in this action. To help identify codependency, it can help to ask the following questions:

  • Do you feel personally responsible for your family member’s addiction or feelings?
  • Do you feel that your worth to this person is attached to you continuing to enable his or her addiction?
  • Are your own needs being neglected in order to meet those of this family member?
  • Are you left feeling powerless, even though it may seem like you’re in control?

Perhaps the relationship you have with a family member has become codependent. If so, find help from those outside of the family who care. Solution Based Treatment’s addiction specialists are here to give every family a warm environment where they can learn and grow together. With the support of family, community, and medical and psychological professionals, you can find long-term recovery and healing.
