omg codependent
I found or figured out the major codependency issue I have. It shows up as this maki thing or an possum. It symbolizes the holding or hanging onto someone. The dynamic is me being like the one who holds onto the person and my main issue has to do with disagreeing, having a separate opinion or emotion and energy and take on things. I also tend to idealize the person or I try to be like them and it's toxic. It's this sense of "I don't know what to do" when I need to separate or be different from someone I have developed the toxic relationship to. I also may obsess on the person and, okay I read this but I literally have been doing it, try to heal them and fox them so they'd feel better and be free so that I'd also be free (if they agreed with me). But yeah it needs to stop. I also might talk with their voice or play them. What tends to trigger it is the person's disagreement or them being hurt. The amount of tourment and guilt is horrible and I might blame myself tremendously and I try to find them everywhere. I'm also tense and tight and suppressed and I lie to myself and it's horror, especially because when I go against my own truth and values when I act based from the wound. When it eases, I feel light and so good and simple. It's mostly someone who reminds me of my mom or so that I end up creating the relationship to and when the trauma is active they show up as these ducks or chicken and it's like I'm in their nest and it's horrible and I feel like there's this "egg" that's like the false self that's created if I neglect myself. I also play the people they are often toxic
Another thing especially with my mom are these rags that symbolize, specifically, the way she hangs onto me and there's like this undirect expectation of loving her ad taking care of her from her towards me (toxic) and this thought of me needing her while I never actually get anything. also this projection she has that has nothing to do with me.
