Dependent – I Hate Being Dependent On Others

We all depend on (rely on) others for support. The angst comes from a few sources: 1) If someone gives me something, I owe them or they control me. (other definitions of dependent). 2) A belief in lack- if I rely on this, and it goes away, I won’t be able to stand it! 3) The things we tell ourselves about it (I’m weak, embarrassed).
