The term codependency began being discussed in the late 1980s, with the first Codependency Conference being held in Scottsdale, AZ, in 1986. The terms have been used, banished, and used again. Dr. Tim Cermak tried to get the terms included in the 4th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, but so far, the term has not been included. One of the first books, Codependent No More, was written by Melody Beattie. Regardless of what the over-giver behavior is called, there are symptoms that are discussed in this episode.
