Codependency Support Group

Codependency is defined as someone who exhibits too much, and often inappropriate, caring for another person's struggles. A codependent person may try to change, or feel shame about their most private thoughts and feelings if they conflict with the other person's struggles. If you are on a journey towards self-love, this support group is for you. Join us and find others...

I finally purchased my own copies of Alanon One Step at a Time and Courage to Change...

And our counselor recommended that Troy initially read Facing Codependence by Pia mellody to understand me and that I read Learning to Live Again by Gorski/Miller to better understand him. I also purchased him Staying Sober by Gorski/Miller.

I realize most of you here already have read these particulars but I thought I'd throw it up anyway and ask for additional reading materials that some of you have really enjoyed/benefited from.

SMILES!

Oh, I also wanted to add, for those that may not know and don't mind purchasing these sorts of self help items used to always go to Half.com first.

May I ask...is Facing Codependence for the person that is the focus of the CoD? I think I might ask someone to read it if it is...or let me know how he responds to it?? I'm a little confused...LOL, as usual!

Hi Maia, I liked the book "Women who love too Much", The Dance Of Intimacy" and "The Dance Of Anger."
I also liked the book "Simple Abundance." all of which I think helps us on our journey..

i agree with ella---all of harriet lerner's "dance" books are great for insight.
anything by iyanla vanzant is great for spiritual healing.
"road less travelled" m. scott peck is great for general reference.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
