co dependence come from a fear that you’re not enough on your own, but you are. you’re afraid that if the people you love aren’t around then you have no reason to exist. one day sooner or later you’re gonna have to learn who you are ALONE as an individual and then learn to love that person. i believe in you

But like. Is not having any connections to people whatsoever until I’ve internalized that lesson the only way? I feel like people need human connection for more than just validation and it scares me that I’ll be missing out on my entire social life and throwing away everyone I already have even though I care about them

i already know you’re the type of person to either be ALL IN or not in at all. the real answer is it’s a middle ground but from what i can tell about you, you’ll really struggle with that at first so you’ll probably need to distance yourself from people and distractions to practice sitting with who you are alone and it’s gonna be hard but you can do it

it’s baby steps really. you recognized you had a problem, but it comes from something deeper and i have a feeling you know that. figuring out what that is and what it means and what to do with it is up to you. i believe in you you know? you can keep the people you love around but communicate that you’re trying to change and if they’re worth keeping they’ll love you through it
