Lea's Journey: Overcoming Codependency with Faith and Resilience
I really didn't start having a pattern of codependency until I noticed, until really my teenage years...I always felt that way too in high school, like I would hang out with the stoners, and I wasn't really a stoner. So I wanted to be part of it because I was on the team, but I had other friends and I was totally different with those other friends than I was with the cheerleaders.
