Dependence Demystified - Worksheet Edition
This client worksheet guide offers supportive exercises to explore the impact of dependence on family relationships and personal identity. It helps individuals examine how they’ve viewed the dependent person—often as a role or burden rather than a full person—and how this perception has shaped their own behaviour, boundaries, and emotional patterns.

Designed to be used alongside therapeutic support, this guide is part of a six-part series focused on healing from the effects of growing up around addiction. Through writing prompts, reflection questions, and grounding activities, it encourages clients to separate their identity from the chaos of dependency and begin seeing both themselves and the dependent person with greater clarity and compassion.
