I'm really into like asian food so like tahini or soy sauce or something or a combination of the two. It's usually what I'm throwing on top of things. I like all Asian sauces. So when did you find out you were an adult child? You know, I hadn't heard about it until pretty recently. It's probably a year or so ago. Um, and there was a guest on a podcast I listened to and she was talking about codependency stuff and attachment issues.
