News of Dependent Personality Disorder

So this is my first post but I've been wondering this...

Hi, I'm new here and to this diagnosis, but since getting it I can't stop thinking about every single relationship in my life. Am I dependent on my girlfriend? On my mom? On my friends?

Hello everyone; I’ve been worried about this for a while now but since looking up articles on emotional dependence I’ve been a bit more worried than usual.

Initially it was your usual high school crush that give you butterflies ...

I have heard of this condition before. Only really considering this as a possibility now. I’m 29 and feel heavily dependent on my mother. I call her every 2-3 hours but not when she’s at work. I am usually talking about specific things like work. I always need advice or support. I can’t make decisions sometimes so things just stay on my mind for months with no answer.

She likes him because she thinks he takes care of his kids and is independent. Somewhere deep down she expects him to take care of her too, but he cannot devote much time to her because he is married and ...
