Breaking Free from Codependency

Do you find yourself constantly trying to please other people? Are you the go-to person for everyone else's problems? Do you put up with an unhealthy relationship because you fear being alone or abandoned?
Recovery from codependency is not only possible but also liberating. You can kick this codependency habit and put an end to the unhealthy cycle. What is codependency? - and is it really all that bad? This book aims to serve as an introduction to codependency to help readers learn more about what codependency is, how it manifests in relationships, and what you can do to help yourself or others dealing with codependent relationships. Codependency is not only limited to emotionally intimate relationships. It can affect a spouse, a parent, a friend, a sibling, or a coworker of a person struggling with alcohol or drug dependence. When you are codependent, you are over-focused on others and aren't happy unless they are happy. This leads to you being dependent on them for emotional validation and support. Eventually, you become exhausted, resentful, and angry about the situation. The world needs giving, loving, and compassionate people. However, you also deserve to experience the same in return. The cycle of receiving and giving is sometimes difficult for people who are codependents because they're often in one-sided relationships. And when you continue to enable this, despite your best intentions, it deprives the person you're sheltering of the lessons they need to learn and grow. The truth is, you can only give so much for so long before you start suffering. Being in this dynamic holds you back from your authentic path and purpose. In this book, you'll learn how to expand your consciousness to become the kind of person who naturally communicates boundaries confidently. Instead of operating from past traumas and survival responses, you'll learn to open your heart and engage more vulnerability, compassionately and consciously, in every relationship.Codependency is not a life sentence. It's simply a behavior pattern you can break with information, practice, and guidance.
