Past problems

This episode talks about how I became a codependent love addict. Helen was an alcoholic who was angry at herself for getting pregnant by a man who had no desire to take care of a child. As I got older, I became a punching bag for Helen's regrets. The more I sought her approval, the angrier she became. Lots of abandonment issues soon developed. When Helen died in 1986, I transferred my codependency to other relationships. I've been working on healing my codependency with the help of Dr. Robert Glover (No more Mr. nice guy), and others.
