Morphology
codependency = dependency (semi-transparent) = co + depend + ency
The formation 'co-' + 'dependency' signals mutual dependence, but the clinical sense of 'codependency' (enabling and unhealthy relational patterns) is a specialized extension beyond simple mutual dependence.
Etymology
Codependency comes from the parts co- meaning 'together' and depend meaning 'to rely on'. So codependency is when people 'depend on' each other too much, often in ways that stop them from making healthy choices alone.
