I really liked this book, it helped me to see my behavior, where it came from and what to do with it. I would recommend this book to anyone struggling with co-dependency or even if your spouse is an addict and also if you are an addict.
I am greatful that there is such help. Thanks!

Christine

"Love is a Choice" is getting to the root of an issue that much of self-help theory is aimed at (or should be aimed at )resolving - codependency. The authors claim that at least 100 million people are suffering from codependency. If so (and I certainly believe them) then this book is sorely needed. We are seeing an expanded perspective of the meaning of codependency. "Love is a Choice" is useful because it is a workbook format, and for making progress with codepenency issues, a workbook is likely necessary.

The authors' definition of codependency is "living in the myth that you can make yourself happy by trying to control people and events outside yourself. A sense of control, or the lack of it, is central to everything you do and think." In my view this is appropo. We can be codependent in relationship to people, situations, and things; however, in my perspective when we learn how to have healthy relationships with the people in our lives, our relationships with the other two (situations/things) also work themselves out because we are putting people first. My suggestion: get going on this work!

This workbook has really helped me think through my relationship patterns. It is very clear and concise, and is an excellent supplement to the book without being repetitive. I highly recommend it....

Awesome workbook! Hard work and difficult things to look at in your past and in your life, but very helpful in dealing with codependency and boundary issues. I highly recommend this for those wanting to work on codependency issues.....probably best to work through with a counselor or fellow struggler.
