    Most co-dependents learn not to express their feelings, and may even actively deny them to themselves.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Co-dependents often develop a pattern of suppressing their emotions and may go as far as denying their feelings altogether. This behavior is commonly learned as a coping mechanism in dysfunctional relationships where their needs and emotions are consistently invalidated or dismissed. By not expressing their feelings, co-dependents may try to avoid conflict or maintain a sense of control. However, this can lead to emotional repression and hinder their ability to establish healthy boundaries and communicate effectively. Therefore, the statement is true.

    What are three main lessons that a co-dependent learns during their childhood? (Select 3)

    • Don't feel

    • Don't talk

    • Don't eat

    • Don't sleep

    • Don't trust

    • Don't worry

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Don't feel
    A. Don't talk
    A. Don't trust
    Explanation
    During their childhood, a co-dependent individual learns three main lessons: not to feel, not to talk, and not to trust. These lessons suggest that the co-dependent has likely grown up in an environment where their emotions were suppressed or invalidated, leading them to believe that expressing their feelings is not acceptable. They may have also learned to keep their thoughts and opinions to themselves, possibly due to fear of judgment or punishment. Additionally, the lack of trust indicates that the co-dependent may have experienced betrayal or unreliable relationships during their formative years, causing them to develop a guarded and skeptical nature.

    Co-dependents are those persons who depend on others for their own sense of self-esteem.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because co-dependents rely on others for their self-esteem. They often seek validation and approval from others, and their self-worth is tied to the opinions and actions of those around them. This dependency on others for their sense of self-esteem can lead to unhealthy and dysfunctional relationships, as co-dependents may sacrifice their own needs and boundaries to please others and maintain their self-esteem.

    Recovery is something that must be done alone and away from others.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Recovery is not necessarily something that must be done alone and away from others. In fact, many people find support and encouragement from others to be helpful in their recovery journey. Having a strong support system can provide emotional support, accountability, and guidance throughout the recovery process. Therefore, the statement that recovery must be done alone and away from others is incorrect.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    In which one of the following areas is it common for a co-dependent to have unresolved feelings?

    • Loss of money

    • Loss of parents

    • Loss of memory

    Correct Answer
    A. Loss of parents
    Explanation
    It is common for a co-dependent to have unresolved feelings in the area of loss of parents. Co-dependency often involves an unhealthy reliance on others for emotional support and validation. When a co-dependent loses their parents, they may struggle with unresolved grief, feelings of abandonment, and a lack of guidance and support. These unresolved feelings can contribute to the co-dependent's need for external validation and dependency on others for emotional stability.

  • 7. 

    Co-dependents are very often obsessive-compulsive in nature.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Co-dependents are often obsessive-compulsive in nature because they tend to have an excessive need for control and perfectionism. They may engage in repetitive behaviors or rituals to alleviate anxiety or maintain a sense of order and predictability. This obsessive-compulsive tendency can manifest in various aspects of their lives, including relationships, work, and personal habits. It is important to note that not all co-dependents are necessarily obsessive-compulsive, but the two traits often coexist.

    What are the three 'rules' of denial syndrome? (Select 3)

    • Deny that anything is wrong.

    • Deny that the children have anything other than a loving and nurturing home.

    • Deny that everything is ideal.

    • Deny oneself care and attention.

    • Deny that the parents are anything less than perfect.

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Deny that anything is wrong.
    A. Deny that the children have anything other than a loving and nurturing home.
    A. Deny that the parents are anything less than perfect.
    Explanation
    The three 'rules' of denial syndrome are denying that anything is wrong, denying that the children have anything other than a loving and nurturing home, and denying that the parents are anything less than perfect. This syndrome involves an individual's refusal to acknowledge or accept any negative aspects or problems in their life or environment, particularly when it comes to their family dynamics. By denying these issues, individuals with denial syndrome attempt to maintain an idealized and positive image of themselves and their family.

    Co-dependence is beneficial to a couple as it gives them both someone they can rely on.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Co-dependence is not beneficial to a couple as it can create an unhealthy dynamic where both individuals become overly reliant on each other for their emotional well-being. This can lead to a lack of independence and personal growth. A healthy relationship should involve interdependence, where both partners support and rely on each other while also maintaining their own individual identities and autonomy.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Which of the following qualities would you ascribe to a typical co-dependent? (Select 2)

    • Successful

    • Unexpressive

    • Over-achieving

    • Loving

    • Violent

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Unexpressive
    A. Over-achieving
    Explanation
    A typical co-dependent is often characterized by being an over-achiever and having a tendency to be unexpressive. Co-dependents often feel the need to take care of others and seek validation through their achievements. The over-achieving quality reflects their constant need for approval and the desire to feel needed. Additionally, being unexpressive is common among co-dependents as they may control their desire to express as a coping mechanism to deal with the stress and emotional turmoil that comes with their tendency to put others' needs before their own.
