Publisher's Synopsis
Are you in a painful relationship, but still feel a compulsion to please your partner, even at your own expense? Do you wonder why?
Do you try to set boundaries but can't stick to them, so you get taken advantage of or walked all over?
You might be in a position where your partner knows you are too afraid to leave and leverages this knowledge against you.
If you are showing these telltale signs of codependence, don't worry, you are not alone.
Millions of people struggle worldwide with codependency. Lopsided relationships, the inability to tell someone "no" and mean it, and the frightening worry of being unhappy both with or without your partner can cause you to experience low self-esteem, anxiety, and stubborn bouts of depression.
But there is hope!
Scores of individuals have fully recovered from this hopeless seeming state when armed with the tools and knowledge required to not only survive and overcome codependence, but to break free from the broken-record cycle of bad relationships that codependents often find themselves in.
