"This book defines and describes codependency and lists possible causes for it that result in this unhealthy pattern of living. Plans, skills and ideas for overcoming codependency and working towards a healthier self and future relationships are offered. I could have really benefited from having this book in my younger years but I believe it is never too late to learn and grow. If you find you have difficult relationships and attract the same types of people and situations over and over, you will benefit from reading this book."

"Loved the book!!! Wish I could have read it years ago. It was an easy read that got right to it! I didn't want to put it down because of how helpful it was! I've been in a codependent relationship for over 25 years and have finally had the courage to move on. I knew I was codependent but from reading this book I understand so much more on why. The book taught me self care and ways for healthy future relationships."
-Gina M.
"I truly found this book to encompass the many layers of codependent behaviors which begin with family of origin, attachment style, deficits and that each human responds differently to family dysfunctions. This book really embraces a way to heal and understand how and why you operate as you do in relationships seeking validation which is from within, embracing self and that we all innately deserve and have love power and compassion within to heal. Love this as a tool to help others understand self in relationships.
thank you Linda for allowing me to read this, I am not quite finished but it has struck me in a profound way!"
-Brynne N.
"The author, Linda Hill, defines codependency as "an enmeshed relationship in which one person loses their sense of independence and believes they must tend to someone else." This is practiced through giver-taker relationships. A quiz is offered to the reader to determine to what extent one may find themselves involved with a "taker". Real life examples and attachment styles help the reader identify with their situation. Tips for leaving unhealthy relationships along with setting boundaries and providing rationale of obsessive thinking assist the reader to move forward with healthier habits and building better relationships. The book has researched based information and puts it in easy-to-read context so any reader can understand and develop self-help strategies."
-Laurie D.
"A very clear and simple explanation of codependency. If you are new to learning about codependency this is a great resource to start with."
