Co-dependent

So part of my own co-dependency is the fix it mentality. I work hard on it and I don't always succeed. So awhile back I noticed that I always seemed to be rescuing people and decided to stop doing that. Stop fixing, enabling, etc. Doesn't mean I don't think about it or talk about what the person should be doing, but I'm not talking to the person about it at all. I have come to the conclusion (and I really knew it anyway) that if rescue always comes then nothing gets learned. And honestly I am tired of rescuing. So some of the people I used to rescue have some serious serious hard knocks coming and that is all right. They might learn something.

That said....I noticed this week that even in my dreams I am no longer rescuing. Just sitting back, listening, but not rescuing. That must mean I am making progress on my own co-dependency. I like it.
