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 gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
