This week on our shameless mental health podcast. . .@thejeremyjudepodcast (www.thejeremyjudepodcast.com #spotify #applepodcast) Licensed Professional Counselor Larissa, and Marriage and Family Therapy Intern Jeremy Jude debate whether or not codependency is a real mental health issue, and whether or not it is dysfunctional. Despite long-held beliefs about codependency, Jeremy and Larissa try to understand the true need for dependency, and how codependency might actually be a misnomer. Could it be that depending on others is a functional biological response? What if what we call "codependency" is really just dependency that is expressed inappropriately? What does our Western culture tell us about relying on others? Could there be shame associated with needing people in our lives?     CONTACT USHave an advice question or a suggestion on how we can improve?
