About this title: Pia Mellody, author of "Facing Codependence" and "Breaking Free" turns her attention to the toxic experience of a co-addicted relationship. She argues that co-addiction and co-dependence, often confused with one another, are not the same thing - co-dependence is about how a relationship with oneself fails, whereas co-addiction is the result of an unhealthy entanglement with another. The book explores in detail the dynamics, the symptoms and the stages (from attraction to obsession) of a co-addicted relationship, and outlines a practical recovery process for the love addict.

"So far very eye-opening... interesting to say the least. Why do things have to be so complicated? I should have been a psychologist!! When all is said and done I could have at least been rich."
"Yes, I'm ashamed to admit that I own this book and have read it completely. But it really helped me a lot during some tough times... which reminds me, I should give it another look soon."
"When you do not understand why you react the way that you do in relationships of any kind, this book offers excellent insights. Very helpful for becoming conscious of our responses to others."
