| 0:00.0 | Hey, deserving listeners, it's just me today. This is the second follow up to the codependency deep dive. |
| 0:07.1 | This is a patron-only episode, but I have a little bit of a lengthy intro here if you're interested. |
| 0:13.3 | So anonymous patron wrote in and they said, can a codependent over-functioning parent cause their |
| 0:21.0 | children to develop dependent personality disorder? So just chime in here. Yeah, absolutely a parent |
| 0:27.9 | who is codependent and therefore over-functioning can absolutely contribute to the development of |
| 0:36.3 | dependent personality disorder in a child. Codependency and over-dependency actually fit very |
| 0:43.6 | well together. And as I've talked about before, codependency is sometimes confused with over-dependency |
| 0:50.6 | or dependent personality disorder, but they are definitely not the same thing in a lot of ways they |
| 0:56.3 | are opposites. But anyway, I've got into detail on that nuance. Going on with the email, |
| 1:03.2 | my aunt married an alcoholic in her early 20s and they had two children. They divorced about 20 |

| 1:27.5 | The oldest has struggled with alcoholism for at least the past six or seven years. My |
| 1:32.7 | aunt seemed to be in denial about this and for many years would insist it was just fine for other |
| 1:37.8 | family members to drink around my cousin or for my cousin to have just one beer. Both cousins, |
| 1:44.4 | so just tell me in here, if you grow up in a family where there was addiction, |
| 1:51.6 | there are a lot of behaviors that crop up and are modeled to children that uphold the addiction, |
| 1:58.2 | such as denial, minimization, and other kinds of enabling things. |
| 2:05.2 | You know, what's happening is that the individual who is struggling with addiction has probably |
| 2:12.0 | been trying to cut back or even, you know, even abstain. But there are so many factors that lead to |
| 2:20.4 | them having a really hard time reducing their use. Namely, the addiction itself, the physical |
