I know I am dependant, because I have very bad separation anxiety.
I cry constantly when my husband is at drill (he's in the Army Reserves)...
and I even get panicy and cry during the days leading up to his drill.
In my rational mind, I know that he will be back in 1-3 days
(depending if he leaves on Friday morning and comes back that night, or if he has to stay all weekend... until Sunday night)
I also hate being alone during the day while he is at work (which is why I am on here so much.
PC is my attempt at distraction, sometimes it works and I feel ok, but sometimes I still feel panicy throughout the day)
Also... I just looked up DPD up on the conditions and disorders section of PC... and I have 8 out of 8 of the symptoms.
It was like I was reading a biography of myself... scary.
