Facing Codependence
A guide to understanding the origins of codependence and the path to recovery, tracing the illness back to childhood describing emotional, spiritual, intellectual, physical and sexual abuse. The author creates a framework for identifying codependence and presents a therapy for recovery.
The groundbreaking bestseller on codependence—with more than 600,000 copies sold—is now revised and updated to reflect more than 15 years of research and clinical work at the renowned Meadows Institute.
In Facing Codependence, Pia Mellody creates a framework for identifying codependent thinking, emotions, and behaviour and provides an effective approach to recovery. Mellody sets forth five primary adult symptoms of this crippling condition, then traces their origin to emotional, spiritual, intellectual, physical, and sexual abuses that occur in childhood.
Central to Mellody's approach is the concept that the codependent adult's injured inner child needs healing. Recovery from codependence, therefore, involves clearing up the toxic emotions left over from these painful childhood experiences.
