Counseling for Co-Dependency, Over Giving & People Pleasing in Asheville

You work hard. You have a gigantic heart and are super loyal to the people in your life. They count on you to get sh*t done and to solve problems. You have the endurance to go the distance and the stamina to take on a lot. You say yes because you love to make everyone happy. You focus on everyone else's needs and put your own on the back burner. And most of the time you don't even know what you need much less know what you are feeling. Your super-achieving super powers are starting to leave you feeling wrung out, overwhelmed, unappreciated, bitter, resentful and angry. So angry. 

"YOU OWE YOURSELF THE LOVE THAT YOU SO FREELY GIVE TO OTHER PEOPLE." - ANONYMOUS

The bottom line, it is easier to focus on other people problems than your own. It is what you have always known. It is automatic. It's the way that you grew up. It helped you to survive the complicated dynamics that you grew up in. And as you have grown older, you have also learned to neglect yourself, and it is no longer working for you.
