Are you codependent?
Characteristics of Co-dependent People:
Questionnaire To Identify Signs Of Codependency This condition appears to run in different degrees, whereby the intensity of symptoms are on a spectrum of severity, as opposed to an all or nothing scale. Please note that only a qualified professional can make a diagnosis of codependency; not everyone experiencing these symptoms suffers from codependency. 1. Do you keep quiet to avoid arguments? If you identify with several of these symptoms; are dissatisfied with yourself or your relationships; you should consider seeking professional help.

Homoeopathy can play a very important role in treating codependency.

Jan Scolten Anger, hate criticism, Beauty, grace, harmony Idealism Love and relationships Another possible situation is that they are resentful because they don't have a relationship. They feel that they are not receiving any love and when they do finally meet a partner they have such high expectations that it is impossible to fulfil them. So they are disappointed in their ideals and they take this out on their partner. They become irritable and resentful and their partner usually escapes after a very short time. This Am-s behaviour pushes away all potential partners and they end up alone. Another variation might be that they really do have a partner who is cold and reserved. In this case they have chosen such a partner in order not to have to show their need for love. This often follows the example they had from their parents, who often had the same sort of marriage, with little love and a lot of bitterness and disappointment. They feel that it is impossible to have a loving relationship, so they avoid it altogether by choosing an unloving partner.
