About the book: 2016 / Everyone knows that alcoholism is a disease that affects people dependent on alcohol. However, not everyone knows that there is another risk group - close relatives of an alcoholic. The term “codependency in alcoholism” also means dependence, but not on alcohol, but on a loved one who abuses it. Codependent people take responsibility for what happens to their drinking relative: they strive to control him, they believe that it depends only on them the well-being of the patient and the possibility of his recovery. As a result, they completely subordinate their lives to the interests of the drinking family member, allowing him to influence their behavior, decisions, choices, etc. As a rule, these people are not aware of their codependency, and therefore plunge deeper and deeper into a state of emotional discord with others world. The author of this book went through all levels of codependency, trying to help her husband cope with alcoholism. She managed to understand what was happening to herself and her family, was able to overcome codependency and radically change her life and the lives of her loved ones. On the pages of this book, she generously shares her truly invaluable experience with readers who have encountered alcoholism in the family..
