Codependency is a topic that comes up frequently in drug/alcohol treatment, as most people in treatment are either co-dependent themselves or have a codependent SO/parent/whatever. Yes, it is attributed largely to "popular psychology", but given that all of the practices we use in treatment are evidence-based, I have a hard time lumping it together with other concepts that are under that umbrella, especially after seeing so much of it.
