4 men gathered for another great edition of Toby Talks. Specifics are confidential, but here are some of the themes:
- Co-dependency is a learned behavior that can be passed down from one generation to another. It is an emotional and behavioral condition that affects an individual’s ability to have a healthy, mutually satisfying relationship. It is also known as “relationship addiction” because people with codependency often form or maintain relationships that are one-sided, emotionally destructive and/or abusive. The disorder was first identified about ten years ago as the result of years of studying interpersonal relationships in families of alcoholics. Co-dependent behavior is learned by watching and imitating other family members who display this type of behavior.
- Separation
- Stopping to put people on pedestals
- How To Stop Giving a Fuck (and Stop Seeking Approval)
