“Emotional dependence is the opposite of emotional strength. It means needing to have others to survive, wanting others to "do it for us," and depending on others to give us our self-image, make our decisions, and take care of us financially. When we are emotionally dependent, we look to others for our happiness, our concept of "self," and our emotional well-being. Such vulnerability necessitates a search for and dependence on outer support for a sense of our own worth.” GivingWellsLooksMeanSelfCareDecisionSupportEmotionalConceptsOppositesTake CareWell BeingVulnerabilityBeing YourselfDependentDependenceEmotional StrengthEmotional Well BeingDepending On Others Author:Sue Thoele
