Insult and Injury
Blame has no place in recovery. If we recognize addiction as a disease, we turn our attention to recovery and avoid blaming ourselves or others. It is equally important that codependents stop blaming themselves or others for their dependency, and realize that being codependent is not being bad. The addict plays the tune and the codependent dances to it. Recovery from codependency means giving direction to your own life instead of constantly reacting to someone else's behavior. Learning more about codependency can free you from its restrictions and discomforts.
