I cam across this aricle on Facebook today and it blew me away. It described me to a T. I have never heard the term before. The article explains it's different to co-dependancy.

Anyway I thought it was an interesting article and thought I would share on here in case anyone is interested.

And me! Right down to the migraines, digestion problems and insomnia that I was plagued with during the last year of my marriage. Interesting article, thanks! x
