Overcome Codependency

Codependency is a common disorder among the family members of alcoholics and drug addicts, but it often arises in individuals who were raised in families where a set of unwritten rules prohibited the open discussion of problems and the expression of feelings. The codependent person typically lives absorbed in the problems of others and has no time to identify or resolve their own issues. They are often obsessed with the behavior of another person and devote themselves to controlling that behavior. They feel responsible for the happiness or unhappiness of those around them, but are incapable of attending to their own well-being. They do not live their own life; they live entirely in function of others.

In this warm and simple book, a true global bestseller, Melody Beattie summarizes her experience as a former alcoholic, addict, and codependent, and proposes clear and practical methods to escape the quagmire of codependency. The book is a valuable resource for those seeking to understand and overcome codependent patterns of behavior.
