 - my opinioin of Breaking free.Plenty of room to write responses. Helpful Regret the religeous slant Rating:  - This is a great tool if you want to get free !This workbook, to be used in conjunction with "Facing Codependency" is a fantastic tool in breaking the heavy denial that comes with codependency, taking a clear objective look at where the codependent beliefs came from (without blaming others), seeing the true impact of this disease on our lives and based on that information helps us to decide for ourselves clearly what steps to take to work towards true freedom and recovery. I appreciate that both these books encourage self-responsibility and does not just present the (yes, depressing at times) negative aspects of this devastating disease but the HOPE of what "freedom" looks like and very specifically as we work through the book what health and freedom will look like for us! Happy recovery! Rating: - Hard but NeccessaryThis book takes the premise that it will root out and rid you of your denial. I am sure that is helpful, but it is very painful. I got this book because I was feeling overwhelmed with realizing how bad things had gotten in my life and was looking for help. I am more depressed than ever. This is not the place to go for hope. But, I think it is probably true that when you have stalled in your recovery or have reverted without realizing it, that it is because you have fallen into denial. And she is trying to lessen that. Probably overall key to recovery, but very difficult in the moment. I am sure that it is a neccessary piece of recovery to be balanced against other more hopeful tools. Rating: - Very in-depth and constructive, from past-present-futureThis workbook is the best I've used for codependence recovery, I highly recommend it when used in conjunction with Facing Codependence (Don't get the workbook without also getting Facing Codependence). It's really helped me make some great strides and insight into my dysfunctional boundaries and behaviors. Rating:  - corresponding bookI just wanted potential customers to know...that the workbook is structured to correspond with the book. IF you purchase the workbook ALONE... the writer's instruct you to read passages in their book prior to continuing with a various workbook section. I cannot yet rate the merits of the material...as I have yet to recieve the book in the mail...so that I can begin. In association with Amazon.com | |
