Love addiction manifests in many forms, from fatal attraction-type obsessive lust to less extreme but nonetheless psychologically and emotionally harmful forms. The most common of these is staying in a bad relationship because of a fear of being alone - the "I hate you but don't leave me" relationship.

In Addiction to Love, recovering love addict Susan Peabody explains the variety of ways this disorder plays out, from the obsessively doting love addict to the addict who can't disentangle from an unfulfilling, dead-end relationship.

Peabody provides an in-depth and easy-to-follow recovery program for those suffering from this unhealthy and often dangerous addiction and explains how to create a loving, safe, and fulfilling relationship.

great information. highly recommend if you think you might have love addictions there are worksheets in the back that help you assess your current relationship with love addiction. the only thing i disliked was the repetitive mentions of god, especially at the end. a lot of people have religious trauma and that word is triggering. using a general term would be better

so enlightening

If you’re looking to find the root causes of your love addiction, symptoms, and easy instructions this is your book. I’ve been in and out of love addiction recovery for many years and for whatever reason this book finally hit home. The stories are great. Be prepared to uncover some truths about yourself and let the healing begin.

Fantastic Book for Love Addicts

Good book and a good read for anyone wanting to better understand their struggle with obsession in relationships.

Profound

To tell people to pretty much just get over it is not helpful. If they already had willpower it would not be a problem. It’s a rare addict that can just decide to stop a behavior.

Not that helpful

There has been a lot discoveries in attachment theory. The content is very dated, no wonder it’s free.

Outdated

The narrator is either AI or so poorly edited that the inflections on the words sound very wrong. I believe there are some good suggestions on how to cope with certain behaviors. I appreciate the way it was broken into small chunks that I can sift through the chapters for. I wish there were less 'you' and 'the Love Addict always' statements because I found them a bit accusatory. For someone claiming to be a recovering love addict I would suggest a we format to soften the tone. there is a lot of God talk and a whole segment on how Spiritual love is the only love that lasts forever, I do not appreciate that especially when slipped into the end of meditation exercises, I really felt that cheapened any sense of trust I had in the Author. overall if I had paid for this title I would have demanded a return after 2 minutes, I feel like 5 hours of my life have been wasted by a poorly edited attempt to make me find Jesus. Do yourself a favor and pick a different audiobook.

Decent information, horrible narration.
