Search - Codependent No More: How to Stop Controlling Others and Start Caring for Yourself

Is someone else's problem your problem? A simple straight forward,readable map of the perplexing world of codependency.

this whole topic is so important for so many of us women today! especially for the baby boomer generation who were trapped in two worlds, the old traditional one of our stay at home mothers and the new one where women do it all!

"Codependent" is more than just a word joked about in sit-coms. It is for real. But it is so difficult for the person who is codependent to realize it. They don't intend to control others and everything around them - that is just their comfort zone and how they deal with life. But they need to learn how to love themselves and to care for themselves. The rest of the world will appreciate it and they will live longer and love more fully. A good read.

This is a book to read over and over until the message sinks in.

After a 9 year relationship with an alcoholic, I KNEW I was going crazy. This book let me know that a) I am not the only person who has ever felt like this, b) I am not stupid, and c) what my real problems were. It also provided coping strategies for going through the detachment and divorce. This book saved my life.

The information in this book changed my life. I also keep it on hand to reference as needed. I finally found a book that described me, and taught me how to be a healthy person emotionally.
