Question:
Is there a group that deals with codependency issues that does not use the 12 step?
I was told by my gf that I have codependency issues I tried the groups she recomended but they all use the 12 step program and I got the feeling that the issue there is about getting people to submit to God more than it is about people helping people. So I'm looking for something more scientific and a lot less "spiritual"
Thanks in advance.
Answers:
Maybe instead of a group, you could go to a psychologist. They will help you work through your issues, using psychology instead of religion as the basis. Just make sure you find a good one that will really push you, and not one that just listens to you and says "How does that make you feel?" If your codependency stems from your family relationships, then a family counselor would be a good place to start.
