About this listen
Codependency for Dummies, 2nd Edition is the most comprehensive book on the topic to date. Written in plain English and packed with sensitive, authoritative information, it describes the history, symptoms, causes, and relationship dynamics of codependency. The majority of the book is devoted to healing and lays out a clear plan for recovery with exercises, practical advice, and daily reminders to help you know, honor, protect, and express yourself. New to this edition are chapters on working the 12 Steps to recover from codependency and how therapists/coaches/nurses are affected by codependency.
Codependence is primarily a learned behavior from our family of origin. Some cultures have it to a greater degree than others-some still see it as a normal way of living. Yet the costs of codependence can include distrust, faulty expectations, passive-aggressiveness, control, self-neglect, over-focus on others, manipulation, intimacy issues, and a slew of other harmful traits. Codependence causes serious pain and affects the majority of Americans-not just women and loved ones of addicts. Codependency for Dummies, 2nd Edition offers authoritative and trusted guidance on ways to raise your self-esteem, detach and let go, set boundaries, recognize healthy vs. dysfunctional relationships, overcome guilt and resentment, and much more.

the book draws an intriguing connection between codependency, childhood trauma, addiction and personality disorders
The book Codependency for Dummies is highly informative and serves as a valuable complement to my previous readings on trauma, addiction, and personality disorders. It expands on the topic of codependency using psychological terminology, which I find refreshing. Unlike many other books on addiction and self-development, it avoids incorporating spiritual metaphors from Buddhism or the Bible. This approach resonates with me, as I’ve often encountered religious references, such as “devil” or “hungry ghosts,” in similar literature. The focus on psychological concepts provides a more grounded and accessible perspective.
