Melody Beattie Knihy

...Spoluzávislý človek je ten, kto sa nechá ovplyvňovať správaním druhého a pociťuje nutkanie ovládať a kontrolovať jeho správanie. Tou druhou osobou môže byť dieťa aj dospelý, milenec, manžel, brat, sestra, starý rodič, rodič, klient alebo najlepší priateľ. Môže byť alkoholikom, drogovo závislým, telesne alebo psychicky chorým či normálnym človekom, ktorého sa príležitostne zmocní smútok. Podstata definície spoluzávislosti a uzdravenia však nespočíva v tomto druhom človeku - bez ohľadu na naše neochvejné presvedčenie. Spočíva v nás samých, v spôsoboch, akými sa necháme ovplyvňovať správaním druhých ľudí a v spôsoboch, akými sa my snažíme ovplyvniť ich správanie....

Stal se problém někoho jiného – zejména problém s jeho závislostí na alkoholu, drogách nebo hazardních hrách – vaším problémem? Stala se péče o takového jedince ústředním bodem vašeho života, takže se zapomínáte starat o sebe? Pak jste možná spoluzávislí – tedy stali jste se součástí systému, ve kterém přebíráte zodpovědnost za chování někoho jiného, takže ho paradoxně v jeho chování podporujete.

"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 35 years ago."-- Provided by publisher
