Codependency is a relational behavior pattern that can manifest in various ways, especially in relationships impacted by addiction. Often, individuals lose their sense of self and feel trapped in toxic dynamics, even when they recognize the harm it causes. At The Ohana, we address codependency through a combination of individual and group therapy, relationship-building activities, and holistic therapeutic approaches, helping individuals regain autonomy and cultivate healthier relationships.
Codependency used to refer to the often unbalanced relationship between an individual suffering from SUD and their partner or family members. Today, this term is used more broadly to describe unhealthy relationships where one individual is stuck in a giver role, while the other remains in a taker role.
It is important to note that caretaking on its own does not mean codependency, it is the loss of self, and self worth that indicates that codependency may be present.
In a codependent relationship, the giver may be afraid to leave the relationship because they are afraid that the taker cannot make it without them. Additionally, they may not know who they are without the need of the taker. On the other hand, the taker also has a hard time leaving because they have become reliant on the giver.
Codependent relationships can occur within various relationships:
Codependency often results from attachment styles formed during childhood. Since psychodynamic therapy seeks to understand how a person became who they are, it is a great option for individuals seeking to break habitual codependent behaviors.
Additionally, group therapy is a great space for individuals to explore how codependency has shown up in their relationships. During group therapy individuals can connect to others with similar experiences and practice setting healthy boundaries. Clients at The Ohana are also able to practice boundaries and develop trust in others in various adventures on the island as a part of the Adventure Therapy Rehab Program.
Finally, an important aspect of healing from codependent relationships involves developing a strong sense of self. Holistic therapy, which helps clients connect mind, body, and spirit is an effective avenue to gaining a strong sense of self to find freedom from codependent behaviors.
People with codependent relationship patterns are susceptible to substance use disorders for various reasons. Since codependency can make it difficult for a person to set boundaries, they often engage in the same behaviors as their partner. Codependent people who have partners with substance use disorder are more likely to develop an addiction themselves.
Additionally, some symptoms of codependency are emotionally painful. Extreme people-pleasing can cause people to lose their sense of self or repress their feelings. Many use drugs or alcohol to cope. This can quickly become a serious addiction. People in this situation require comprehensive treatment for codependency and substance use disorder.
