Please answer every question and then click "Go" at the bottom of the page to proceed to your results and recommendations.
I am in a significant relationship with someone who is addicted to a substance or a behavior, or someone who is depressed.
I feel responsible for almost everybody and everything, but I feel guilty much of the time.
I can't say "no" without feeling guilty.
I can accurately "read" other people by analyzing their facial expressions and tone of voice.
I try very hard to please people, but I seldom feel that I measure up.
I feel that I have to protect people, especially the addicted or depressed person in my life.
I live in such a way that no one can ever say I'm selfish.
I vacillate between defending the irresponsible person and blowing up in anger at him or her.
I often relive situations and conversations to see if I can think of some way I could have done or spoken better.
I feel overly frightened of angry people.
I am terribly offended by personal criticism.
To avoid feeling guilt and shame, I seldom stand up to people who disagree with me.
I tend to see people and situations as "all good" or "all bad."
Though I try to please people, I often feel isolated and alone.
I trust people too much or not at all.
I often try to get people I love to change their attitudes and behavior.
I tend to believe the addicted or depressed person's promises, even if he or she has broken countless promises before.
Sometimes I have a lot of energy to help people, but sometimes I feel drained, depressed and ambivalent.
I often give advice, even when it isn't requested.
I tend to confuse love with pity, and I tend to love those who need me to rescue them from their problems.
I believe I can't be happy unless others, especially the needy people in my life, are happy.
I am often a victim in strained and broken relationships.
I am defensive when someone points out my faults.
My thoughts are often consumed with the troubles and needs of the addicted or depressed person in my life.
I feel wonderful when I can fix others' problems, but I feel terrible when I can't.
