Dependent Development

Is someone else's problem your problem? If, like so many others, you've lost sight of your own life in the drama of tending to a loved one’s self-destructive behavior, you may be codependent—and you may find yourself in this book. With personal reflections, exercises, and instructive stories drawn from Beattie’s own life and the lives of those she’s counseled, Codependent No More helps you break old patterns and maintain healthy boundaries, and offers a clear and achievable path to healing, hope, freedom, and happiness.

In-depth narratives on recovery, our fellowship, common questions, but without the personal stories.

Melody Beattie integrates her own life experiences and fundamental recovery reflections in this unique daily meditation book written especially for those of us who struggle with the issue of codependency. Problems are made to be solved, Melody reminds us, and the best thing we can do is take responsibility for our own pain and self-care.

If your life has been affected by addiction (yours or someone else's), abuse, trauma or toxic shaming, you may also be struggling with another invisible problem - codependency.

This easy-to-understand, interactive book will reveal how codependency has sobotaged you, the lies it created in your beliefs and the truths that expose them.

When you are codependent, you are unconscious. You do not know that emotional neglect has caused your brain to believe life is a threatening reality. Instead of believing you are worthy of love, you feel unworthy of love. You do not make choices because they might bring you joy. You play it small, try not to rock the boat, people-please, and focus on what you do not want to happen versus what you would like to happen.

Do you love an alcoholic? You are not alone! There’s healthy love, and then there’s painful love. If you are in a relationship with someone with a drinking problem, then you probably find yourself suffering right alongside them...watching, begging, pleading, caring, crying, and helping - yet, to no avail. The fact is, we lose ourselves trying to save them.

Breaking free, stepping forward, and taking control of your life are all things we dream of when our self-identity starts to retreat. The problem is that while these phrases sound like anything is possible, you feel like the gap you have to cross is so vast you’ll never get to the other side.

Feeling insecure in a relationship is a very hard-to-handle emotion, but being in this situation is more common than we can think. In the beginning, we don't understand how much this can affects our life, but then, the voice in our mind starts asking many questions about ourselves, our partner, and our relationship. Do you ever felt like that? If so, you've probably noticed how this has consequences in your life.

Like most psychiatric concepts, codependency issues, symptoms, and effects are complicated. When you have a codependent personality disorder, you tend to have low self-esteem and turn to anything outside of yourself for comfort, such as alcohol, drugs, relationships, or compulsive behaviors. This can take a toll on your life, leaving you in a state of constant fear of abandonment, a compelling need to please and control others, and obsession with your partner. However, recovering from codependency is possible!

While it’s difficult to overcome codependency, change is still possible…only if you choose to work on yourself and make the necessary adjustments. And it all starts here with this practical guide to overcoming codependency in your relationships.
