Abstract

The article focuses on recognizing the signs of codependency and its impact on personal well-being and relationships. Codependency is characterized by behaviors such as an exaggerated sense of responsibility for others, difficulty identifying one's own feelings, and a deep need for external validation. Experts highlight that codependency often stems from early childhood experiences and can lead to various mental health issues. Healing is possible through therapy, support groups, and self-awareness, with key signs including a lack of personal identity, trouble saying no, and an overinvolvement in others' lives.
