“Melody Beattie is an American phenomenon. . . . She understands being overboard, which helps her throw best-selling lifelines to those still adrift.”—TIME
“Codependent No More gave words to the masses who never had a way to describe these types of relationships in their lives. . . . For so many, Melody’s book was a resource to help free themselves from something they may not have even recognized in their own lives—and 35 years later, it still is.”—Jen Hatmaker
-
Melody Beattie’s compassionate and insightful look into codependency—the concept of losing oneself in the name of helping another—has guided millions of readers toward the understanding that they are powerless to change anyone but themselves and that caring for the self is where healing begins.
Is someone else’s problem your problem? If, like so many others, you’ve lost sight of your own life in the drama of tending to a loved one’s self-destructive behavior, you may be codependent—and you may find yourself in this book. With personal reflections, exercises, and instructive stories drawn from Beattie’s own life and the lives of those she’s counseled, Codependent No More helps you break old patterns and maintain healthy boundaries, and offers a clear and achievable path to healing, hope, freedom, and happiness.
This revised edition includes an all-new chapter on trauma and anxiety—subjects Beattie has long felt necessary to address within the context of codependency—making it even more relevant today than it was when it first entered the national conversation over thirty-five years ago.
