What is codependency?

Codependency is a behavioral pattern where your sense of worth becomes tied to another person’s needs, emotions, or problems. It often leads to neglecting your own well-being, difficulties with boundaries, and emotional distress in relationships.

With compassionate care, change is possible. Psychiatric support can help you build healthier boundaries, strengthen self-esteem, and create more balanced connections.

7 signs of codependency you shouldn’t ignore

Everyone wants to care for loved ones—but when your self-worth depends on meeting others’ needs, it can take a toll on your well-being and relationships. Over time, these patterns may leave you feeling drained, anxious, or disconnected from yourself.

Here are 7 signs of codependency you shouldn’t ignore—especially if they’ve been affecting you for weeks or months.

1Feeling responsible for others’ problems You often take on the role of fixer, feeling it’s your duty to solve other people’s struggles.

2Difficulty setting boundaries You struggle to say no, even when it means sacrificing your own needs or well-being.

3Constant need for approval Your self-worth feels tied to being needed or accepted by others, leaving you anxious about rejection.

4Neglecting your own needs You put others first so often that your own health, emotions, or goals are left behind.

5Low self-esteem You may feel unworthy or define your identity by the relationships you’re in rather than who you are.

6Anxiety when not needed You feel uneasy or distressed if you’re not relied on, fearing you’ll lose connection or value.

7Relationships feel unbalanced You notice patterns where you give far more than you receive, leaving you drained and unfulfilled.
