Why Must Read Co-Dependents Anonymous?

A must for people in recovery. Adult Child and codependence are the core issues of all other compulsive/addictive behaviors. This book contains the wisdom of many who have walked out of the unmaneagability of our old ways of interacting with ourselves and others. It's a relief to learn we didn't do this to ourselves, and we aren't born this day. Recovery is a beautiful word. When a recovery expedition is done in the world, it is to retrieve something of great value. Sunk ships, buried treasures, lost people. Twelve step recovery takes us back to find our authentic selves, retrieve our abandoned parts, heal, and learn the skills we didn't develop in our formative years. This book was critical to my recovery, and I will return to it year after year, because codependence is a deeply rooted compulsive disease. I never want to go back to the pain of hitting bottom again. So I work it like I'm worth it.
