This is an excellent resource for anyone dealing with codependency issues. She lists six dysfunctional survival roles: Addict, Co-Addict, Peacemaker, Golden Child, Mascot, and Lost Child.
There are affirmations, journaling suggestions, and motivational sayings. I found myself as a giver in several sections. I am a woman who had to grow up earlier than I should have. Plus, I came from a dysfunctional family with a narcissistic mother. The author has a forward-thinking approach and an easy-to-understand style of writing. If you like self-help books or are dealing with codependency, you should give this book a try.
