We have to take into the account the plight and sickness of the Non-BPD as well.  They often are closely linked in the way that they exhibit the characteristics of people who are in relationship with alcoholics.  Take the assessment below, and visit some of the links on this page.  The light-bulb just may go on.  You are not crazy.  You are just trying to make sense out of a crazy and almost utterly hopeless situation.

Does this song sound a little like the voice in your head?   by John Forster (a satire)

Codependent with You

You hold your breath dear, and I turn blue
Cause I'm so co-dependent with you.
Your life was screwed up, now mine is too
Cause I'm co-dependent with you
You're unstable you,
I'll enable you.
Unfeeling? -Ha!  You're way off the curve.
But darlin' that's fine
You're all I deserve.
I'm hooked on the hell that you put me through
And the pipe dream of salvaging you...
Addicted-so addicted to all your allures
That when I die
The life that flashes before me will be yours.
Sick as it is, I'll stick like glue
Though a snake get more love in a zoo.
I'm no garter, dear,
I'm a martyr, dear
who is oh, so, co-dependent with you.
