The New Codependency: Help and Guidance for Today's Generation
The New Codependency is an owner's manual to learning to be who you are and gives you the tools necessary to reclaim your life by renouncing unhealthy practices. In Codependent No More, Melody Beattie introduced the world to the term codependency. Now a modern classic, this book established Beattie as a pioneer in self-help literature and endeared her to millions of readers who longed for healthier relationships. Twenty-five years later concepts such as self-care and setting boundaries have become entrenched in mainstream culture. Now Beattie has written a followup volume, The New Codependency, which clears up misconceptions about codependency, identifies how codependent behavior has changed, and provides a new generation with a road map to wellness. The question remains: What is and what is not codependency? Beattie here reminds us that much of codependency is normal behavior. It's about crossing lines. There are times we do too much, care too much, feel too little, or overly engage.

Fri Från Medberoende - Hur Du Slutar Kontrollera Andra Och Börjar Ta Hand Om Dig Själv
I Sverige uppskattas ungefär en miljon personer leva som anhörig till missbrukare. I den här moderna klassikern lär du dig att förstå medberoende och får hjälp att bryta dess negativa inflytande. Med hjälp av lärorika livsberättelser, personliga reflektioner och tydliga övningar är Fri från medberoende en karta över medberoendets förvirrande värld - en karta som kan visa vägen ut.Att ta hand om sitt välmående innebär bland annat att man sätter och upprätthåller sunda gränser och säger nej till ohälsosamma relationer. En medberoende person tappar ofta bort sitt eget liv i dramatiken av att ta hand om någon annans. Den här boken handlar om att stoppa smärtan och få tillbaka kontrollen. Med åtta miljoner sålda exemplar, är det en av världens mest populära självhjälpsböcker genom alla tider. Melody Beattie har själv erfarenhet av både beroende och medberoende. Hon lyckades ta sig igenom sina svåra erfarenheter genom att hjälpa andra via sitt skrivande. Fri från medberoende har gjort begreppet medberoende känt världen över och boken har av Newsweek utnämnts till en av de fyra viktigaste självhjälpsböckerna någonsin. "Beattie förstår hur det känns att ha fallit överbord, vilket hjälper henne att kasta livlinor till de som fortfarande kämpar." - Time Magazine
