If your needs always come last… if you feel responsible for everyone else’s emotions… if your sense of worth depends on being needed — you may be stuck in a cycle of codependency.
Codependency isn’t just “being too nice.” It’s a deeply rooted survival pattern built around people-pleasing, emotional caretaking, and self-neglect. And over time, it leaves you feeling resentful, invisible, and emotionally drained.
But it doesn’t have to stay that way. These codependency recovery worksheets are here to help you reconnect with your identity, break toxic patterns, and build relationships rooted in mutual respect — not sacrifice.

What Codependency Really Looks Like
Codependency shows up in ways that are often praised or misunderstood. You might:
- Feel guilty when you say no
- Constantly put others’ needs before your own
- Struggle to make decisions without someone else’s input
- Feel anxious or empty when you’re not “helping” someone
- Stay in one-sided or toxic relationships out of fear or obligation
- Believe your worth is based on how much you give
It’s not your fault. Codependency often forms in childhood or past trauma where love and safety felt conditional.

- Identify your emotional needs (maybe for the first time)
- Set and maintain boundaries without apology
- Reclaim your voice and preferences
- Develop interdependence instead of enmeshment

These worksheets aren’t about becoming cold or distant — they’re about becoming whole.

It’s Time to Reclaim Yourself
